We are delighted to announce the promotion of Adam Smith to partnership in the firm.

Adam’s journey with Blaser Mills began in the Family & Divorce department as a trainee, where his passion for Childcare work flourished, which led him to undertaking a seat in the Child Care team with Partner and Head, Denise Herman. Since then, Adam has become an exceptional Childcare lawyer, renowned for his expertise and dedication.

Adam handles a caseload of Legal Aid Public Family Law cases, including Special Guardianship and Adoption. He ensures continuity of representation and often undertakes his own advocacy in Family Court.

He is known for his straight-talking yet sensitive legal advice, and the ability to manage emotionally challenging cases.

 A member of the Law Society’s Children Law Accreditation scheme, Adam has litigated up to the Court of Appeal and was shortlisted for Young Family Law Solicitor of the Year in 2022.

Denise Herman commented: ‘Adam is an excellent team-player, always providing support to his colleagues. He has shown himself to be a brilliant Court advocate and enthusiastically embraces innovation and technology. Above all, he genuinely cares about people – he never shies away from a challenge, and always wants to achieve the very best outcomes for his clients.’

Adam Smith added: ‘I am delighted and proud to have become a Partner at Blaser Mills, and grateful for the mentorship and support I have enjoyed here over many years. I look forward to taking care of my clients and continuing the extremely rewarding work I do, as a Partner, for many years to come.’
