Firm welcomes specialist solicitor
Dorset law firm Steele Raymond LLP has announced that it has appointed a specialist solicitor to its leading family team in Bournemouth.


Family lawyer Adam Cooper joins from a boutique family law firm in Salisbury, having previously worked for both national and regional law firms.

Adam has wide-ranging experience in all family related issues and offers particular expertise in handling complex children matters, child arrangement orders, financial settlements and divorce proceedings.

Commenting on his appointment, Adam said: ‘Steele Raymond has always had a very strong reputation in family law regionally, spanning the South Coast and further afield. The professionalism of how Steele Raymond handles complex and, at times, emotional matters for clients is second to none in my opinion. The firm’s vision and unwavering desire to provide outstanding client service is something that mirrors my own ethos of handling family law matters, so the decision to join the team was a very easy one.’

Daniel Sanders, partner and head of the firm’s family team at Steele Raymond, said: ‘I am delighted to welcome Adam to the Family team at Steele Raymond. Adam’s recruitment represents a key part of the firm’s growth and the continued development of a highly regarded specialist team of family lawyers. As part of a team of strong and experienced lawyers, Adam will further enhance the quality of support and level of service which we provide to our clients. The depth of Adam’s experience in his career to date will be an asset to the family team and will strengthen our offering across the South Coast and South West.’
