Experienced in dealing with all aspects of relationship breakdown for married and unmarried couples, Davies brings with him more than 25 years’ experience in family law, joining Kuits from Linder Myers where he was head of family.

Colin also has significant expertise in pre and post nuptial agreements and has acted in numerous high-value cases, often with international elements.

Additionally, he is a member and former national secretary of Resolution, an organisation of family lawyers committed to non-confrontational divorce, separation and other family problems.

Kuits’ family team is further bolstered with associate Madelaine Hailey qualifying as a Resolution Accredited Specialist, following a rigorous study and examination process, recognising her expertise in the field of family law and her thorough understanding of substantive law.

Colin Davies said: “Joining the team at Kuits and helping to further boost the service offerings of the private client team has been wonderful. The firm has such strong values and a true family culture, which I have found particularly welcoming.”

Steve Eccleston, managing partner at Kuits, said: “Our aim is to attract the best talent in the sector and the appointment of Colin into our award-winning private client team reinforces our standards of providing an excellent advisory service, adding over two decades of experience, knowledge and expertise.”

The Kuits private client team, which provides a holistic service for individuals spanning tax planning, probate, family matters and residential conveyancing, is top-ranked in the Chambers and Partners High Net Worth Guide for Manchester.
