A family lawyer with more than 25 years’ experience has joined the Swindon office of regional law firm Royds Withy King as a senior associate.

Kit O’Brien, pictured, has been appointed to the firm’s 31-strong family team from Slee Blackwell solicitors in Taunton.

Kit specialises in divorce proceedings, civil partnership dissolutions and resolving the complex financial issues which arise during a relationship breakdown. She is a member of the Law Society-accredited family law panel and is a trained mediator and a collaborative lawyer.

In an extensive career, she has worked for firms in Somerset, Wiltshire and Oxfordshire, including Pardoes and Porter Dodson. 

Kit, who is also working out of the firm’s Marlborough office to provide support and services to families across Wiltshire, said: “I’m passionate about ensuring that each of my clients gets a service tailored to them.  I don’t do ‘one size fits all’. 

“My aim is to support each client through whatever their journey brings, helping them achieve a sensible, fair and cost-effective outcome. I have had a lot of experience dealing with farmers and business owners and their spouses, as well as cases involving police officers and military personnel which often bring their own sets of challenges and circumstances.

“I am really excited to have joined Royds Withy King.  The firm has a fantastic family team across its network of offices and it’s great to be a part of that and share in their ethos, which is all about supporting clients with a personal approach and providing the best possible service.”

Royds Withy King was formed in September from the merger of regional law firm Withy King and city of London practice Royds. It employs around 450 staff across its offices in Swindon, Marlborough, Bath, Oxford and London.
