We offer a wide selection of family law services, many of which can have a profound impact on individuals and families moving forward.
Our trustworthy and family-orientated team can help guide you through what options are available to you in a variety of circumstances, whether you are looking to safeguard your future, move on from a relationship or even something that you would prefer to share with us in confidence.
Our background as family law specialists means that we truly understand that no two families are ever the same, so we always go the extra mile to ensure you have only the very best advice, with any of the following:
The breakdown of the marriage or any other relationship always causes distress and often confusion. You will need calm, sympathetic expert help to sort out the practical problems.

We have experience in a wide range of cases involving non-accidental injury, physical and sexual abuse, alcohol and drug related issues and emotional abuse and neglect.

Common law wives do not exist – FACT! Just living together will not necessarily give you any legal status, rights, or entitlements.
What Can We Help With?
You will receive support from our experienced solicitors who listen, advise and guide you toward a solution that is fair for you and any children involved. We understand how challenging this time can be and offer realistic, pragmatic and honest advice to help you navigate what you are facing.

Our solicitors are members of the Resolution Group and are committed to achieving outcomes in an amicable and respectful way.
We offer all clients an initial interview for a small fixed fee. We assess all clients to see if they qualify for Legal Aid instead.
If not, we will give a written estimate of likely cost, keep you informed as the case goes on and stick to our estimates.

Family law solicitors can assist with a variety of legal matters in regards to personal matters, such as divorce, cohabitation agreements, childcare arrangements, and more sensitive matters such as domestic violence and paternity fraud.
Family law is a mechanism to protect the rights and responsibilities of family members across a wide range of situations. It is used to achieve both fair and reasonable results for all family members, whether adults or children.
As experienced family law practitioners, we understand how emotionally charged these situations can be. Our knowledge of the legal landscape in these areas is second to none, but we also understand how to approach each situation with great care and sensitivity.
