Advocate Lauren Glynn takes over from Samantha McFadzean, who recently became the Family Division Registrar of the Royal Court in Jersey.

Ms Glynn joined Carey Olsen in 2013 before departing in 2017 to practise at a small specialist litigation firm. She returned in September in preparation to take over as the firm’s family law specialist.

She was recently appointed to sit as treasurer and committee member of the Jersey Family Law Association.

Carey Olsen Partner Marcus Pallot said: “Lauren is a very accomplished and experienced family law specialist and has forged an excellent reputation for herself locally. She is adept at promoting alternative dispute resolution solutions wherever possible, but when litigation cannot be avoided she is able to call upon her considerable experience of appearing before the Royal Court of Jersey.”
