National law firm appoints new partner to its Family Law team

Irwin Mitchell has appointed Zahra Pabani as a partner to its Family Law team, where she will divide her time between the firm’s Birmingham and London offices. Zahra joins the team after more than four years at Shakespeare Martineau.

With an interest in helping clients to protect their wealth, Zahra has particular expertise in acting for professionals and high-net-worth clients on protecting their personal and business assets before and after relationship breakdown. With a proven track record in and outside of the courtroom, Zahra also brings expertise in collaborative law.

Ros Bever, national head of Family Law at Irwin Mitchell said: ‘It’s wonderful to have someone of Zahra’s talent and experience join our team. We look forward to what Zahra will bring to the table with her expertise and extensive knowledge of the family law market.’
