Family Law

Our Solicitors can provide you with the advice and support that you require to assist you to move forward following a family breakdown.

We aim to help to resolve issues as quickly as possible to minimise the emotional impact. We hold a legal aid franchise for family work and therefore can assist you on a legal aid basis subject to eligibility.

Divorce
Going through a divorce can be a very emotional and stressful time in your life. We can provide you with the advice and support to make the procedure as quick and as hassle-free as possible.

Financial matters
Following the breakdown of a marriage, dealing with the financial matters can seem like a daunting task. Our team can provide you with specialist advice to assist you in resolving financial matters as quickly and as amicably as possible, whilst at the same time ensuring that the matter is dealt with in a manner which is the most cost effective for you.

Children
Children are vulnerable to the effects of divorce/separation and we can advise you to assist you in making the right choices for your children. Whether you require advice in relation to issues of residence or contact or other concerns relating to your children, our experienced Solicitors can help you.

Cohabitation
If you live with your partner but are not married or in a civil relationship, then your rights in relation to property/financial matters are very different. The law in relation to cohabiting couples is quite complex and court proceedings to resolve matters can be quite costly. Our Solicitors are able to provide you with the advice and assistance that you need to enable you to reach a swift agreement with as minimal financial and emotional impact as possible.

Domestic Violence
If you find yourself in a situation where you are the victim of physical/emotional abuse our team can provide you with the advice and assistance you require to enable you to obtain a ‘non-molestation order’ to protect you. If you require advice in relation to whether your spouse/civil partner/cohabitee can be required to leave your home or alternatively if you have already left your home and you are seeking advice on whether you can return, our experienced Solicitors can also provide you with advice in relation to applying for an ‘occupation order’.
