Annabel Hayward
A recommended lawyer in The Legal 500, who describe her as “striking a good balance between empathising and successfully navigating divorce cases” and “a pragmatic lawyer with a cool head”, Annabel Hayward has over 20 years’ experience in divorce and family law.
Annabel’s strong reputation is built around excellent client care and negotiating tailor-made financial settlements – out of Court where possible, and at an early juncture.
