We’re thrilled to be able to announce that the Encyclopaedia on Family and the Law has a new member on its Editorial Board.

Jo Shortland is a Partner at Oliver Fisher and is the Head of their Family Law Department.  She is a member of The Law Society Advanced Family Law Panel, and is a highly accomplished family mediator. Jo is also a Collaborative lawyer and cares deeply about the families she assists.

Jo’s areas of expertise are many, and include divorce, adoption, contact and residence and child abduction.

Hugely knowledgeable and immensely approachable (you can find Jo tweeting about all sorts of family matters in her gentle and positive tone), it’s a privilege to have Jo on board and we very much look forward to working with her.
