How Our Family Solicitors Can Help
Every family situation is different. You may need early advice before making a decision, or urgent support where children, finances or safety are involved. We’ll take the time to understand your circumstances and give you practical advice from the outset.
Our Family Solicitors can advise on:
- Divorce and separation
- Financial settlements, including property, pensions and maintenance
- Child arrangements, including where children live and how time is shared
- Adoption and special guardianship
- Emergency applications and non-molestation orders
- Farming divorces and family businesses
- Pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements
- Cohabitation and living together agreements
- Grandparents’ rights and wider family arrangements
Divorce and Separation Advice
The end of a relationship can be emotionally and practically difficult. We can guide you through the legal process, whether your separation is amicable, complex, or still uncertain.
Our Family Solicitors regularly advise on financial arrangements involving homes, pensions, businesses, farms and inherited assets. We’ll explain what the law means for you, what a fair outcome may look like, and the steps needed to reach an agreement or, where necessary, resolve matters through the court.
Children and Family Arrangements
Arrangements for children are often the most sensitive part of a separation. We advise parents, grandparents and carers on child arrangements, contact, relocation, schooling disputes, adoption and special guardianship.
We focus on practical solutions wherever possible, while making sure children’s welfare remains at the centre of the advice we give.
Specialist Advice for Farming Divorces and Family Businesses
We have particular experience in divorces involving farms, family businesses, partnerships and complex assets. These cases often need careful handling because personal, family and business interests are closely connected.
We can help you understand how assets may be treated, what information is needed, and how to protect your position while working towards a fair resolution.
