Divorce and Co-Habitation

If you are looking at this part of our site, or have already contacted one of our lawyers it probably means that your relationship with a spouse, partner or even your children has run into difficulty. We are here to offer a guiding hand through the process and make sure you get the best result:

Call our specialist family law team on 01823 462500 to organise an initial free consultation to see how we can help.

There are many areas in which we can offer assistance in ensuring you achieve the outcome you are looking for, including:

At this stage you need immediate access to common sense, practical and legal advice. Our aim in these cases in simple, it’s our job on your behalf to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and our job is to help you reach it as quickly, and with as little anxiety and expense as possible.

In order to help you focus on trying to maintain a positive approach we provide the option of a one hour free of charge counselling session. This isn’t marriage/relationship guidance counselling as such, but some assistance to help you through a potentially stressful time. It is part of the service we offer and we find that it can be hugely helpful in many cases.

Our team are all highly trained in the area of family and divorce law and each of us has been dealing with these cases for more years than we care to remember! We are members of the Law Society’s panel of family solicitors “Resolution” and follow their code of practice. These days this can often involve mediation. In sensitive or emergency cases we are always happy to provide our mobile phone numbers and can be contacted on a 24 hour basis.

To help make the process as hassle free as possible we try to offer a fixed fee service wherever possible- this is our first choice since it gives you certainty. In other cases we can usually fix fees for certain aspects of the case and for the rest we will give updates and send bills in monthly instalments, so as to avoid any confusion and to help spread the cost.

It’s vital to have confidence in your solicitor in terms of doing everything they can on your behalf, as well as faith in their guidance through the technical aspects of the law, to be sure of achieving the best outcome. As specialist private lawyers we have the expertise and experience to manage your affairs more efficiently and smoothly, and the personal touch to deliver the service in way that suits you best.

We have a good deal of information on our “resources”in relation to divorce law and procedure, financial settlement and other useful article.
