Bethany Hinkin

Bethany is a Paralegal based in our London office. Bethany assists Eliza Hebditch, Lauren Carmichael and David Hansford on a wide range of high-net-worth and international family law matters including (but not limited to):

• High-net-worth and complex financial remedy proceedings
• Schedule 1 claims
• Enforcement proceedings
• Pre- and post-nuptial agreements
• Children proceedings (including international children proceedings and relocation)

Prior to joining the firm, Bethany worked as an academic tutor teaching students English and history and volunteered as a McKenzie Friend, attending court with individuals who were unable to secure representation. She is therefore experienced in supporting clients in difficult situations whilst maintaining empathy, compassion and professionalism. She has completed the bar course and was called to the Bar of England and Wales by Middle Temple in October 2025.

Bethany is with the firm until 2026 when she is due to commence Pupillage at a top tier family set based in central London.
