Welcome to military divorce expert Paul Reay

We’re delighted to the team solicitor Paul Reay, an acknowledged expert in the complex field of military divorce.

Paul was previously Head of the Family Law division Hilary Meredith Solicitors, which is widely regarded as the military’s go-to law firm. He has dealt with a wide variety of cases for those who are either currently serving, or have served, in the armed forces, and has excellent working relationships with a military charities and support organisations.

“I’m absolutely delighted to become a member the McAlister Family Law team,” he said. “I was particularly drawn to the firm by the quality of people that make up such a dynamic team, as well as being excited by the swift growth and development of the business in such a short space of time. This is a firm that is a game-changer.”

Paul has worked extensively with armed forces personnel with particular reference to the Children Act; many military personnel are required to relocate around the world and there are significant implications for the children of military families when parents are divorcing, or if one half of a military family returns to civilian life.

Amanda said: “Paul is a perfect fit for the McAlister Family Law team. He’s an experienced solicitor with enviable expertise in a niche area of Family Law, he knows the region well and he is focused and determined. We’re thrilled he’s now part of the firm.”
