Hi, I’m Alexandra vIVONA

I am a family law barrister at 42 BR Barristers in London, practising across London and the South East. My work is rooted in the belief that legal practice should go way beyond resolving disputes in court. It should reflect strong client care, integrity and a commitment to personalised outcomes.

Clients and instructing solicitors can expect thoughtful, well-crafted advocacy informed by rigorous preparation and a clear focus on their needs. Whether advising on specialist hearings, negotiating settlements, or representing clients in court, I aim to deliver a quality legal service that makes a real difference to the lives of those I represent.

Prior to transferring to the Bar, I was a solicitor advocate for over 10 years. I understand the needs of my instructing solicitors from my own personal experience in this role.

I am also a journalist who comments on legal and political issues in the UK and US.
