Porter Dodson is pleased to announce the appointment of Louise Minifie as a Senior Associate at their recently relocated Exeter office. Louise brings over 15 years of experience in family law, further enhancing the firm’s strong presence in the Southwest Family Law sector.

Louise specialises in providing expert, tailored advice across all areas of family law, including divorce, dissolution of civil partnerships, separation, financial settlements, nuptial and cohabitation agreements, and child care arrangements, including domestic and international relocations. She has extensive experience advising clients with complex financial affairs, including assets abroad, trusts, pensions, and cases contesting the jurisdiction of the English courts.

Louise's addition to the Exeter team underscores Porter Dodson’s commitment to expanding its service offering in the region. The Exeter office, now located at 11-15 Dix’s Field in the heart of Exeter City Centre, recently relocated to larger premises to accommodate the firm’s growing workforce and to better serve clients across Exeter and Devon. Since its opening in 2022, the Exeter office has seen a significant increase in specialist lawyers, allowing for enhanced collaboration and future growth.

Commenting on her new role, Louise said, “I am thrilled to join Porter Dodson and be part of the Exeter team. The firm has a strong reputation in the region, and I look forward to contributing to its continued success by providing expert family law advice to our clients.”

Porter Dodson’s Exeter office is led by Corporate Commercial Partner David Culshaw, with a team of specialists covering a full range of legal services, including Private Client, Residential and Commercial Property, Corporate and Commercial law, Family, Dispute Resolution, and Employment law. The new office, conveniently located with ample nearby parking, is well-positioned to meet the evolving needs of clients in Exeter, Devon, and beyond.

If you wish to discuss any family law matters, Louise can be contacted on 01823 625896 or via email at louise.minifie@porterdodson.co.uk.
