Personal Law
Family Law
Calm, pragmatic guidance through separation, divorce, financial settlements and arrangements for children.
Overview
How we approach family law
Family matters are rarely only legal. Our approach is to reduce conflict wherever possible, protect the interests of children and reach a settlement that is durable rather than merely quick.
Where agreement can be reached through negotiation or mediation, we pursue it. Where court proceedings are unavoidable, we prepare thoroughly and advocate firmly.
Common situations
- Divorce, dissolution and judicial separation
- Financial settlements, pensions and property division
- Child arrangements and parental responsibility
- Cohabitation and pre-nuptial agreements
- Varying an existing order after a change in circumstances
Our Process
Four stages, agreed in advance
A consistent structure applied to every matter in this fictional practice.
01
Initial consultation
A structured first conversation where we map out your family position, the outcome you want and the realistic routes to get there.
02
Scope and cost agreement
You receive a written plan setting out the work, who will carry it out and a transparent fee structure before anything begins.
03
Strategy and progress
Your named solicitor progresses the matter, negotiates on your behalf and updates you in plain English at every meaningful stage.
04
Resolution and aftercare
We conclude the matter, hand over a clear record of what was agreed and set out anything you should review in the future.
