Monday’s Westwater Advocates Family Law Conference has been hailed as a great success by some of the most experienced family law practitioners in the country. The speakers were described as “most impressive” and “brilliant” with the stable being described as the “go-to stable for family law” and the clerking team as an “impressive bunch” which provides “excellent service and guidance”.
The conference was fully booked within days of its announcement as hopeful delegates subscribed to hear talks by Janys Scott QC, John Speir, Robert Hayhow, Ruth Innes and Lynda Brabender, who also chaired the event, followed by a panel Q&A session presented by stable director Calum MacNeill QC.
Clerk Sheila Westwater said “It is very pleasing to receive such positive feedback from our guests following Monday’s event. Having recognised that there was an appetite for such a specialist day, we are delighted that Westwater Advocates’ outstanding group of family law experts was able to rise to the occasion with such aplomb.”
Stable Director Calum MacNeill QC said “The response to Monday’s conference has been hugely encouraging. In addition to our panel of top-quality speakers, it was great to see so many other family law specialists from the stable at the conference, including Rachel Shewan on her first full day in practice. We are always looking at how we can improve our service and the feedback from the conference tells us we are heading in the right direction.”
