Hodge Jones & Allen—partner boost

London law firm Hodge Jones & Allen (HJA) has welcomed three new partners into its growing family law team, taking the total number of partners at the firm to 51.

Joining from Osbornes Law is Sarah Norman-Scott, along with Raj Bhattoa and Phoebe Hill from Stowe Family Law.  

Sarah’s practice covers all aspects of family law, including divorce and finances, cohabitation, and private children’s law matters (including relocation) for high net-worth individuals. She is also co-chair of Resolution’s Litigants in Person Working Group and an accredited specialist in finances on divorce and Trust of Land and Appointment of Trustees matters.

Raj Bhattoa has been recognised for her work in high-net-worth financial matters, post/prenuptial agreements, and private children law. Raj’s practice also has an international focus, with a niche in representing privately funded clients in public law.

Phoebe’s practice encompasses matrimonial, financial, cohabitation, and children’s matters. She is Resolution accredited for private law children, cohabitation and Trust of Land and Appointment of Trustees matters.

Vanessa Friend, head of family law at HJA said: “The arrival of such high-calibre lawyers as Raj, Phoebe and Sarah marks an exciting milestone for our team and the firm. I am incredibly excited to work with them and know that our clients will benefit from their expertise. They are lawyers who focus on the best outcomes for the client and consider carefully how to reach a resolution as early and cost effectively as possible.”
