Family Law

ASK A QUESTION

When a relationship breaks down, everything else can feel uncertain too. We help you work through the decisions that matter, about children, money and what happens next, so you can focus on the people who need you most.

No two families come to us in the same situation. Some clients are able to reach an agreement quickly and quietly, without further conflict. Others need someone to stand firmly in their corner when a fair outcome is being resisted. We start by listening, then work out the approach that fits your circumstances, always looking for the route that protects your family and keeps things out of court wherever we can.

We don’t only get involved when things go wrong. If you’re planning ahead, before a marriage, a civil partnership or moving in together, we can help you put an agreement in place that gives you both clarity from the outset, and can help protect your assets if things change in the future.

Getting advice early usually means more options later.

You might be agreeing arrangements for your children after a separation, or working out a fair financial settlement following a divorce. You might need urgent protection for yourself or your children, or want a nuptial agreement in place before you marry.

If you’re not sure which of these fits your situation, call us, and we’ll point you in the right direction.
