Farnworth Rose Welcome New Solicitor

Farnworth Rose are delighted to welcome experienced family law Solicitor Salma Ahmad to the firm. Salma qualified as a Solicitor in 2014 and has since advised clients on family law and private client matters. She now specialises solely on family law and has a keen interest in matters relating to the Children Act 1989 and financial remedy.

She has extensive experience enabling her to help and support clients to resolve all family law matters including divorce and civil partnership dissolution, financial agreements, children and pre-nuptial agreements.

Craig Baldwin, Director and Head of Family Law commented:

“I’m delighted that Salma has joined our team. She brings with her a wealth of experience across a broad range of family law matters and will be an immediate asset to the department. Family law has seen some unprecedented changes in recent times, particularly with ‘no fault divorce’ which came into effect in April 2022 however it remains crucial for clients to take specialist legal advice particularly in relation to financial matters and children.”

Salma added:

“I’m looking forward to assisting both new and existing Farnworth Rose clients. I’m particularly keen to ensure that cohabiting couples are protecting their rights. Recent research showed that 63% of first time buyers are cohabiting, yet very few protect themselves with a co-habitation agreement which can lead to lengthy disputes further down the line.”
