Whether you are embarking on a new relationship, or your partnership has come to an end and you wish to part ways, you need the right advice and guidance from skilled professionals who are experienced in helping families and individuals to face these life changing situations.
Our family law team will work with you to secure the outcome that is right for you and your family.
If you would like to talk to us about your situation, we offer a free, no obligation half hour meeting where you can discuss your options with one of our family law specialists.
We also operate a ‘family law advice line’, if you wish to talk to someone over the telephone in confidence.
Starting a Relationship
Whether you are moving in together for the first time or you are about to tie the knot, taking those next steps with your partner can be extremely exciting. As you start your new lives together, you are unlikely to be considering your legal rights or thinking about what would happen to your home, assets and finances and so on, if you were to part ways later on down the road.
Whatever stage you are at in your relationship, it is never too late to think about the practical aspects, and to make legal provision in case things change between you both in the future. It can often be a good idea to discuss those important next steps with your solicitor, who will be able to advise you on the practicalities of cementing a relationship with your partner.
Ending a Relationship
It is never easy to have to deal with the emotional impact of the end of a relationship, let alone having to think about all of the practical and financial concerns that go with it. From issues regarding your children, to the division of money and assets, we will support and guide you towards achieving the right result that works for you and your family.
Children
Children are extremely susceptible to the effects of divorce and separation and as a parent you will want to do the best you can to protect them in this situation. We will work with you to help find a solution which works best for your new family arrangements, providing clear, practical advice for you to move forward in a positive way.
