We can offer practical and sensitive advice when a relationship has broken down.We will help you reach an agreement over where your children live and how regularly they have contact with each parent as well as resolving financial issues.
Mediation can help you both to consider what issues need to be settled and help you reach acceptable arrangements without the need for lengthy and costly court battles and we try to use mediation where possible.
Problems can be prevented in advance by a prenuptial agreement or a cohabitation agreement, both of which we are able to provide. For those who are seperated but do not yet want to divorce, we can prepare seperation agreements.
We can also bring and defend proceedings under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act of 1975.
This covers situations where a person has not received provision under a will and is a dependant of the deceased, or has children who are dependant.We also deal with matters of domestic violence and can offer support and practical advice.
We have also gained much experience over the years acting for people in the
financial services sector as you would expect of a firm in our location, including
brokers, traders and executives of commercial banks.
