Calum Smith

Calum Smith completed his pupillage in October 2023 under the supervision of Tom Harvey, Jude Allen and Josh Viney. Calum has quickly developed a broad and busy practice covering all areas of family law. During his pupillage, he worked closely on cases at all levels from the County Court to the Court of Appeal and has been instructed in his own right in financial remedy cases with assets as high as £5m. Despite a particular focus on financial remedy work, Calum accepts instructions in applications brought under TLATA and the Family Law Act 1996 and has extensive experience in private children disputes. Prior to joining chambers, Calum worked as a paralegal at a specialist family law firm in London. Before that, he was a fee earner at a high street firm in Merseyside for a number of years.
