Visit our team page to meet our talented solicitors. Our skilled and experienced team bring a wealth of experience and expertise.
Our family law solicitors specialise in divorce cases, and we can assist in matters such as child custody, financial arrangements, separation and other family legal matters. For more information on no fault divorce, civil partnership dissolution or financial issues contact us.
A child arrangement order is granted by the court and can provide instruction on who a child or children live with or on how and when a person is to have contact with the child(ren), depending on the circumstances of the family in question.
Financial negotiations can be dealt with at any time, either before, during or after the divorce. Whilst it is not necessary for negotiations to have been completed before the divorce has been finalised, it is sometimes advisable that any arrangements are agreed and recorded in a Consent Order before the divorce is finalised.
To maintain the highest of standards, we have invested in state-of-the-art technology and developed an entirely client-centred approach. We listen and understand before providing straight-forward and honest professional advice to get you the best results*.
We foster unrivaled collaborative relationships with our clients, provide the very best legal services, and deliver immense results. We also extend our impact beyond the field of law and effect positive change in all aspects of life through our charity – The XYZ Foundation.
The divorce process begins when either you or your spouse, the ‘applicant’ files the Application (formerly divorce petition) with the court.
The divorce cannot be contested and is straighforward however, delays by either side and disagreements over financial issues are common factors that slow progress, making the process take longer. If both parties cannot agree, or there are delays returning paperwork, then this can extend the time and increase costs.
A child arrangement order is granted by the court and can provide instruction on who a child or children live with or on how and when a person is to have contact with the child(ren), depending on the circumstances of the family in question.
Spousal maintenance is primarily a way of meeting the gap in funds to cater for a person’s essential needs. In some circumstances, a person may have given up a career in order to bring up children and there is often no way for them to go back to their previous job after so long. As a result, they will need an income to be able to move on with their lives and it is for the courts to decide how much and for how long. The court does not award indefinite maintenance payments unless the facts of the case require it.
