Amanda Dench retires from the Miles & Partners partnership

After more than 27 years as a partner, Amanda Dench has retired from the partnership, and Ritu Sood, has become an equity partner.

Amanda was one of the five founding partners of Miles & Partners in 1996 and is recognised as a hugely experienced and respected practitioner, representing clients in numerous reported cases in both the High Court and the Court of Appeal.

Whilst Amanda is stepping back from day-to-day casework we’re delighted to retain Amanda’s knowledge and experience as a consultant to the firm, focusing on the ongoing professional development of our family lawyers and management of the firm.

Kate Hammond, Joint Managing Partner said:

“We’re enormously grateful to Amanda for her longstanding contribution to making Miles & Partners one of London’s most respected Family law firms. We thank Amanda for her hard work and dedication to her clients and the firm.”

Equity partner Ritu Sood has taken over from Amanda as Joint Head of the Family team, alongside Kate Hammond.
