Family Law

The practice of Family Law is like no other area of the legal profession. We meet clients at a time when they are often in some distress, vulnerable and not always able to make decisions for their family’s future. It is for this reason that we pride ourselves in our professional but sympathetic and friendly approach to our work. Our main aim is to give comprehensive, straightforward advice on all aspects of a client’s case enabling them to make clear and informed decisions for the future, thus lessening the trauma of family breakdown.

Where couples have been able to negotiate their own agreements we can help implement them to ensure legal clarity. Where agreement is not possible we can advise, guide and help clients during the decision making process.

We are also able to help couples embarking upon new relationships whether these are to live together, marry or buy property together. We offer practical and legal advice on matters that should be considered before embarking on these new relationships, helping to guard against possible failure in the future.

An initial free half hour appointment is available, sufficient to give general advice and information, enabling clients to consider their position before going further. If instructed to proceed we will give as much information as possible about the likely costs and timescale of the work involved.
