Jenine Imms

About My Work

I have dedicated over 15 years of career exclusively to family law, working in both a boutique Legal 500 family law firm in Kingston, where I ascended to partner and thereafter at a National Legal 500 family law firm. I possess comprehensive expertise and experience in every facet of private family law. I hold a particular interest in divorce/dissolution and high net worth (HNW) finances, which encompasses cross-jurisdictional issues and enforcement proceedings. Additionally, I am well-versed in matters concerning children and committed to safeguarding the child/parent relationship. I am proficient in addressing all aspects related to cohabiting families. I place a strong emphasis on client care, prioritising support while providing pragmatic advice and solutions. My focus lies in achieving early resolution through non-contentious methods, with the aim of minimising animosity.

Notable Experience

  • representing several clients within the banking industry who had complex income structures and achieving outcomes that enabled them to achieve immediate clean breaks.
  • representing a father who has been alienated from his child due to ongoing police involvement and abuse claims, resulting in a reinstatement of care arrangements (including overnight stays)
  • cross jurisdictional cases involving non-disclosure and movement of assets between jurisdictions.
  • representing a client who lacked capacity and required the Official Solicitor in annulment proceedings, securing a dissolution of the marriage, retention of the assets and a clean break financial settlement
