Tasha Bevan-Stewart is a partner in our leading Family Law team and primarily advises clients from our Henley-on-Thames office, as well as Reading and Wokingham offices and remotely.

She is experienced in advising clients on all areas of Family Law, including divorce and separation, financial arrangements, children matters, pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements, cohabitation agreements and issues between unmarried couples, with a particular specialism in assisting clients through collaborative law and mediation.

Tasha is involved in promoting out of court methods in her work with Resolution, the family lawyers’ association, which endorses constructive conflict resolution. She trains new collaborative lawyers for Resolution and co-chairs their Collaborative Working Party. Tasha also reviews content for Practical Law and co-authored the section on collaborative practice in Resolution’s latest 2020 Family Law Handbook.

Tasha views collaborative cases as a “win-win” for all parties involved, keeping costs down and focusing on constructive outcomes. She regularly observes how the collaborative approach benefits and supports clients through separation, and her work with Resolution is aimed at supporting practitioners working collaboratively.

Tasha is also a Resolution-trained mediator who can assist couples to resolve both child-related and financial issues through mediation. She speaks and trains regularly at events on the subject of out of court dispute resolution; and has written several articles on collaborative practice.

Tasha qualified in London in 2007 and practised exclusively in Family Law, in Surrey and Hampshire, before joining Blandy & Blandy from a fellow top tier firm in 2020. She is recommended in the UK's leading guides to law firms, Chambers UK and The Legal 500.

In 2018 Blandy & Blandy was named as a finalist in the 'Family Law Firm of the Year - South' category at the Family Law Awards in London and in 2022 the firm was shortlisted and 'highly commended' in the same category.
