Navigating Complex Divorce and Matrimonial Finance Matters 

As a Solicitor at Lux Family Law, I have had the privilege of being exposed to the highest level of family law work in Wales. My journey with Lux began in March 2019, almost six years ago and I qualified as a solicitor in January 2023. Being trained by Charlotte Leyshon and being exposed to the way she practices for the past six years has equipped me with the skills and expertise to handle some of the most complex and high net worth divorce and matrimonial finance matters.

My particular focus lies in navigating the intricacies of business interests, complex assets and income structures. These cases often involve multifaceted issues such as tax implications, valuation of business assets, and the division of intricate financial portfolios. Each case presents its own unique challenges, requiring a deep understanding of both the legal and financial landscapes.

At Lux Family Law, we pride ourselves on our ability to provide tailored solutions that address the specific needs of our clients. My training at Lux has been instrumental in developing my ability to manage these complex cases effectively. Over the past six years, I have been solely trained at Lux, which has allowed me to gain unparalleled experience and insight into the nuances of matrimonial finance matters.

The support from the team and our founder, Charlotte Leyshon, has been invaluable. Charlotte champions growth and ambition within the team, fostering an environment where we are encouraged to excel and continuously develop our skills. Her leadership and dedication to nurturing talent have been key factors in my professional growth and success.

I am honoured to have been named a Leading Associate in the Legal 500 2025, where it was noted that “at an associate level, the ‘enormously practical and sensible’ Emily Borghese continues to impress and has ‘an exceptional understanding of family law, far beyond her years’.” This recognition, achieved just two years after qualifying as a solicitor, underscores the high level of work and dedication that defines our practice.

As I continue to grow in my role, I remain committed to providing the highest standard of legal representation to our clients, ensuring that each of their matters are handled with the utmost care and expertise.
