Leeds Office

Led by experienced partner Teresa Davidson, the Silk Family Law Leeds office was opened in March 2019 to service the firm’s established Leeds and Yorkshire client base.

Located at One Park Row off City Square in central Leeds, the office is just a two-minute walk from Leeds rail station, with national links and direct trains to London and Newcastle (two hour journey time) and Manchester (less than one hour journey time).

There is on-street and secure parking close by. The nearest car parks are Trinity Leeds (LS1 4AG), Albion Street Q-Park (LS1 5BQ) and NCP Albion Street (LS1 6AD).

With over twenty years’ experience in family law, Leeds office founding partner Teresa Davidson has spent almost a decade as a legal practice partner, during which she has been recognised by both independent UK legal guides, Chambers & Partners and Legal 500.

Working alongside Teresa in Leeds is partner Harriet Reid, who has spent her career of thirty years in family law and frequently advises on complicated farming and partnership matters, often with technical land ownership issues and complex children matters.

• Divorce / separation
• Finance
• Children (live with orders, adoption, abduction and special guardianship)
• Child support
• Nuptial agreements
• Cohabitation agreements / disputes
