Peter Lewis

Partner, Family Law & Collaborative Lawyer

Peter is a partner at QualitySolicitors Parkinson Wright.

He sits as a Deputy District Judge and is also a Collaborative Family lawyer and as such tries to resolve disputes outside contested court proceedings.  Collaborative Law is a process similar to Mediation, however, both parties have their own Collaborative lawyer present in the meeting to assist them with discussions regarding legal issues.

Peter is extremely experienced in all areas of family law, but specialises in the more complex  divorce, separation, financial disputes and children arrangements. He also advises on Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996 (ToLATA), Civil Partnership disputes and Pre and Post Nuptial Agreements. Peter is well respected in these areas and has a reputation for determined representation.
