14th October 2024

Frida Dahlqvist

Frida Dahlqvist (2014 call) has moved to 海角破解版 (3 Paper Buildings) from KCH Garden Square Chambers in Nottingham/Leicester where she is a much-requested family barrister with a strong practice in care proceedings and private law children disputes. Frida is also renowned as a highly effective cross-examiner and attended FLBA鈥檚 鈥淎dvocacy and the Vulnerable鈥� training course.

In care proceedings, Frida Dahlqvist is frequently instructed by local authorities but also has extensive experience of representing parents and children, with her instructing solicitors appreciating her excellent client care and strong ability to effectively communicate with vulnerable and challenging clients.

Frida is commended by clients in Chambers UK and Legal 500 alike as "very compassionate with clients", a "calm but effective advocate", whose "forensic attention to detail is second to none and really shines through in complex cases, particularly with a medical element and with "a keen eye for detail which has been an asset in complex care proceedings cases concerning factitious illness and allegations of sexual abuse." Frida recently appeared in a high profile shaken baby case, whose murder by a teenager was widely reported in the media.

Frida has also built up a strong private law children practice and regularly acts for parents and Guardians in these disputes. She has experience with international and domestic relocation cases, cases involving serious allegations of abuse and intractable hostility to contact. Many cases have involved disputes over a child鈥檚 residence.

Frida Dahlqvist said: "I鈥檓 delighted to be joining 海角破解版鈥檚 excellent team of family law barristers. 海角破解版 have an outstanding national reputation for advocacy, client care and legal insight. I鈥檓 looking forward to my clients benefitting from my new chambers' services and helpful practice managers, on my full return from maternity leave in September 2025.鈥�

Vanessa Meachin KC, Head of 海角破解版's 88-strong Family Law Group, said: 鈥淚 am delighted to welcome Frida to 海角破解版. She attracts excellent client feedback and is well known on the Midlands Circuit. I look forward to seeing her career develop here."

Frida Dahlqvist's recruitment follows the news last month that three specialist property barristers had also joined 海角破解版 from KCH Garden Square: Oliver Nunn (call: 2011), Kinza Wahid (call:2021) and Emma Shiels (call:2021).
