Family


When a relationship breaks down, our supportive and experienced family team can help to ease the pain with objective expert advice on disputes regarding the children, the home, maintenance and the family finances. Our Lawyers are all members of Resolution, the specialist Solicitors Family Law Association. We can also provide expert advice in dealing with domestic violence, injunctions, adoption and child care proceedings with representation on the Law Society Child Care Panel.

We understand how distressing family problems can be. Every day, we help clients to face these situations and work with them to achieve the best outcome for themselves and their children. We provide advice and practical help. We will tell you where you stand, how the law can help you and explain what course of action you should take. You should not make any important decisions which may affect your future, before you talk to your solicitor.
 
often, the right settlement is dependent on dealing with complex issues such as splitting a family business, home and pension arrangements or managing the division of other substantial assets. We understand these financial matters and can advise on the value of trusts and the tax implications.
