The breakdown of a relantionship can cause emotional, financial and practical problems particularrly when there is a child involved.

As members of the Solicitors Family Law Association we believe that family law cases must be dealt with in a conciliatory sensible fashion avoiding any action that will aggravate the problems that clients are already facing.

It is never too early to take advice over what may only be a potential problem. When the questions of contact and residence for children, occupation of the matrimonial house, financial support, division of assets and liability for debts has to be resolved some early advice can give you the warnings or assurance you need to make decisions about your future.

Of course family law covers a lot more than divorce proceedings. Domestic vilolence cases, wardship proceedings and often care procrrdings must be dealt with fast and professionally. Frequently unmarried couples have very complicated circumstances which cannot be resolved without legal assistance. We even provide cohabitation agreements for couples who wish to live together to establish the position of the parties if and when the relationship ends and any other matter the couple may wish to include.

Clients have an incredible amount of variation in the circumstances of their personal life and our family law department provides sensible and skilled advice to meet each and every client's individual requirements.

We will also be happy to give you an idea of the costs involved in your case before receiving your formal instructions. We do a great deal of legal aid work and will be able to discuss your eligibility before undertaking any work on your behalf.
