Michelle Uppal

Partner

Michelle is an accomplished matrimonial solicitor, mediator, and collaborative lawyer with extensive expertise in divorce law, romantic contracts; pre nups, relocation/ child arrangements, and post-separation finances. Michelle has almost 25 years’ experience assisting separating couples with a particular history of handling cases where high-net-worth assets and cross-jurisdictional concerns are involved. As a collaborative lawyer and accredited mediator, Michelle’s modus operandi is to use alternative methods of dispute resolution and to look at a family more holistically to avoid court proceedings and achieve a fair and equitable settlement for both parties. As a litigator she is just as tenacious in the court room as she is around the negotiating table. Michelle is a Partner at Lowry Legal and advises across the whole spectrum of divorce and relationship breakdown, including on financial assets, emergency applications and enforcement orders, spousal maintenance, and re-opening historic settlements. Her cases often have complex, international dimensions, including trusts and off shore assets. Michelle also advises on negotiating pre- and post-nupital agreements, using collaborative methods to do so.
