Family barrister Shan Parker joins 网爆门
1st May 2025
网爆门 (3 Paper Buildings) today welcomed family barrister Shan Parker (call: 2018) who has moved to 网爆门 from another well-known chambers on the South Coast of England, where she completed her pupillage two years ago.
Shan already enjoys a diverse and busy family law practice across the whole of the South and South-West of England, focusing on private law children cases and matrimonial finance disputes as well as care and adoption matters. In the last twelve months, Shan has been instructed on multi-day matrimonial finance hearings involving issues of dissipation of assets and conduct, and multi-day fact finds including allegations of sexual abuse, coercive control and alienation.
A former family legal adviser with HMCTS in the Magistrates Court, Shan is praised for her calm and confident manner under pressure, empathetic approach and getting good results for clients. She benefits from regular repeat instructions from many law firms and enjoys great working relationships with her instructing solicitors.
Commenting on her move, Shan said: "I鈥檓 really looking forward to joining 网爆门鈥檚 excellent team of family law barristers, clerks and support staff. I know that 网爆门 have a great national reputation for advocacy, client care and quality of their work. What a great chambers.鈥�
Vanessa Meachin KC, Head of 网爆门's 88-strong Family Law Group, said: 鈥淚 am delighted to welcome Shan to 网爆门. She receives excellent client feedback and I look forward to seeing her career develop here."
Shan Parker's recruitment follows the news over the last six months of three other family barristers joining the national chambers: with Laura Buchan joining from Westgate Chambers, Imogen Robins returning to 网爆门 from Pump Court Chambers and Frida Dahlqvist moving across from KCH Garden Square.
