Simpson Millar—Neelam Mall

Law firm welcomes family solicitor
Law firm Simpson Millar has welcomed experienced solicitor, Neelam Mall, to its rapidly expanding national network of family law experts.

With more than 17 years’ experience dealing with divorce and the division of assets, Neelam will now work with the wider Simpson Millar family law team to provide services nationally.

Fluent in Hindi and Punjabi, and known for her down to earth, realistic, yet empathetic and supportive approach, she has particular expertise dealing with emergency applications to prevent removal of children from England and Wales, and international family law matters.

She is also an Advanced Member of the Law Society's family law panel.

In her spare time Neelam volunteers for the Centre for Oneness, a charitable organisation which is centered around promoting wellness and wellbeing worldwide.

Commenting on her appointment, Neelam said: 'Simpson Millar is very forward thinking in that regard, and I am delighted to be joining David and the wider team in opening up the law for our clients.'

David Lister, Partner and National Head of the Family Law team, added: “Neelam joins us at a very exciting time. We want to make the law less complicated and to open up the process of separation and family breakdown. The first step has been to attract excellent lawyers who can do more than explain the law.'
