Family Law

Separation and divorce are both stressful and emotional. The last thing you may feel like doing is dealing with legal issues.

 

However, if you have separated or are contemplating separation it is important to obtain sound advice from a family lawyer, preferably before you separate. You need to know where you stand. You need to inform yourself as to what options you have available to you so you can make an informed decision on the next step.

 

It is important that you have an experienced family lawyer who you can both trust and have confidence in. We offer a no obligation initial advice session where you will meet the solicitor, for what is likely to be a meeting lasting between 1 to 1 ½ hours. During this time, we will obtain enough information from you to provide advice as to what options you have. You can then make an immediate and informed decision as to your next step. This could relate to your house, your finances or even your business.

 

The advice session also gives you the good opportunity to meet our lawyer and make sure that you are comfortable with dealing with them and confident they will handle your case with the level of service you expect. In this advice session a divorce lawyer will explain to you the stages involved and what steps you can take to protect your interests.

 

In many cases, a matrimonial property dispute can be handled on a deferred payment basis so you are not required to pay legal fees until a settlement agreement has been finalised.

 

Your divorce lawyer will keep you informed every step of the way. If we are not able to reach an agreement with your ex-partner that is satisfactory to you without going to court, we provide you with an honest appraisal of the likely outcome of a court case and the expected cost involved.
