Associate - Family
Zhenja is a specialist family solicitor in the Bristol Family team at Thrings. She helps clients through complex divorces and separations. Advising clients in all aspects of family law, including helping them with resolving their finances and contact arrangements for their children.
At an early stage, Zhenja sets out all the options available to the client and helps them to reach a resolution, with a focus on reducing conflict. She then draws upon her experience within succession, tax planning and property law to provide advice to clients. If for any reason a resolution cannot be reached, Zhenja is also highly experienced in applying to the court and guiding clients through the process to achieve the best possible outcome for them.
Zhenja has a background in civil litigation, which has prompted her interest and expertise in helping to advise unmarried couples on their rights to the shared home following a separation. She also advises couples at the outset of their relationship/marriage, assisting them with the preparation and implementation of cohabitation agreements and pre-nuptial agreements.
“Following your wonderful guidance and professionalism along the difficult path to divorce I felt fully supported. The process was made so much more bearable by you and the final settlement was far better than I’d dared to hope for. All through the journey of divorce I felt guided and strengthened by having you in my corner. Your sincere kindness and integrity shine out and is something which gave me confidence. This is integral to you as a person and not something that can be taught through professional training.”
