Maggie Rae

Spear’s Review

Back in 1996, Maggie Rae was on Princess Diana’s side of the table in her divorce from Prince Charles.

Up until Rae's death in 2023, she worked on financial and children matters at Newton Kearns, with the latter often concerning which school the offspring of separated parents should attend.

‘We’ll send them to family arbitration,’ said Rae. ‘That’s usually much better than going to court. That’s one of the real horrors of the system... The court service has been cut to the bone – it’s an outrage.’

'Maggie was a remarkable person and one of the finest lawyers of her generation,' wrote fellow family lawyer Rachael Kelsey, upon the news of Rae's death in 2023. 'She acted for the great, the good, the dispossessed, and the unfashionable- treating all alike, and with unfailing kindness, courtesy and wisdom.'
