Onions & Davies Welcome New Family Law Solicitor to Growing Team

At Onions & Davies, we pride ourselves on our friendly, personal approach while providing specialist, professional advice on many areas of law, including family law. The Directors are delighted to welcome Family Law Solicitor Simeon Bowen-Fanstone to the team.

Simeon qualified as a solicitor in August 2018, and has had a broad legal experience across a range of different firms, from high-street firms to a large regional firm in the East Midlands, and even a boutique family law firm in the North-West.

Simeon’s work comprises divorce and financial remedy, child arrangement orders, cohabitee disputes, separation agreements, and protective injunctions. Simeon is also able to assist in relation to Change of Name Deeds, and he runs a weekly Family Law Drop-in Clinic providing information and guidance in Market Drayton to those in need of some free initial advice and signposting.

Simeon is a proud member of Resolution, and is committed to a constructive approach to dealing with Family Law issues. He is skilled in the law, and practical when it comes to helping clients navigate the finer details of family law, such as financial remedy and child arrangements. He prides himself on a no-nonsense and honest way of working. He works to the Resolution Code of Practice, and promotes a conciliatory and cost-effective approach to resolving family law matters.

Simeon is skilled at assisting parties to reach agreement, but will not shy away from taking a firmer approach when this is required. Simeon regularly conducts his own advocacy for clients in Court, and provides support for his clients from start to finish.

Simeon is looking forward to getting involved with, and enhancing, Onions and Davies’ reputation as a firm which is active within its local community.

Simeon’s approach is one which combines an excellent knowledge of family law alongside a sense of practicability. Simeon demonstrates an excellent rapport with clients by offering them real solutions. He provides a safe pair of hands in which clients can place their sensitive family law issues.”
