Direct Access Barrister
Giorgia Sessi
I advise clients on all aspects of their separation and divorce, from the initial stages of disclosure of documents, to the negotiation stage and I also represent clients at final contested hearings. I have experience of advising clients who are considering whether to start proceedings, and clients who are currently in the middle of proceedings. My expertise involves disputes between parties that were not married and had a cohabiting relationship.
I also advise and represent clients in the context of their disputes about their children, to include who the children should live with, whether they should spend time with the other parents and what form this time should take. My expertise covers cases which involve domestic abuse allegations, cessation of contact, international and domestic relocation.
What sort of work do I do?
I represent clients at every stage of financial remedy and children proceedings. I can advise in conference, both remote and in person, provide written advice or represent clients at a specific hearing.
I can help clients draft a witness statement; I can draft skeleton arguments and position statements and I can also provide advice in respect of a prospective or upcoming appeal.
Who do I work for?
I represent people who have divorced, or are in the process of divorcing or separating from their partner, and can advise them on how their finances should be divided. I can provide advice both before proceedings are issued and during proceedings.
I also represent people who have an ongoing dispute with their ex-partner in respect of the care of their children.
