Catherine Smith

  • Office: Swindon
  • Department: Management & Administration , Family & Divorce
  • Role: Managing Partner

Catherine is BLB’s Managing Partner. As such, she is responsible for the firm’s day-to-day administration, developing and implementing our strategy for growth, and ensuring our clients receive the best possible service. She also has direct management responsibility for our Swindon office.

Catherine is an experienced matrimonial and family law solicitor, able to advise on all consequences of relationship breakdown, with particular interests in financial issues and the difficulties involved with relocation of children, whether within the UK or abroad.

Catherine worked previously for the NHS and has a clear understanding of the pressures involved in working in the public sector, as well as the particular issues impacting on public sector workers when relationships break down.

Catherine recognises that there are many practical and emotional difficulties associated with relationship breakdown and works with her clients to achieve the best outcome for each individual.

She is a member of Resolution and believes strongly that it is better to try to resolve disputes in a cooperative and constructive way. Her ability to communicate in plain English and to ensure that her clients understand their options fully before making a decision make her a popular choice for clients. If, however, it is clear that matters cannot be resolved without starting court proceedings, Catherine will promote her clients’ interests in a robust and pragmatic way.

I would highly recommend you to others who maybe in the same position as me because without you I probably would have lost my cool a few times. You have been absolutely brilliant from the start so thank you very much!

  • Catherine Smith helped me resolve my child care arrangement case and was amazing! She had great communication, was available when I had questions, was always honest and straightforward, and let me know what to expect about the process. She kept me updated during all of our correspondence and made me feel reassured and supported. Very kind, thorough and professional. I am so grateful for her work and would recommend her and BLB to anyone seeking solicitors.

  • I am writing this email with extreme gratitude for your tenacious commitment to solve my case. I feel glad that I chose BLB after many years of encountering bitter experiences with some previous solicitors who were very slow in response and only interested in their revenue. I am very impressed by your dedication and proactive approach to each of my emails and queries.
