We offer specialist advice on a wide range of family law issues,
including divorce, separation, financial settlements, children
related issues, the breakdown of unmarried relationships and Civil Partnership
relationships. We are both sympathetic and business like, aiming
to help clients to resolve difficult issues with the minimum of anxiety
and delay.
The law in this area is constantly evolving to reflect changes
in society and financial settlements, including pension arrangements
and the division of capital assets, have become much more sophisticated
in recent times. Specialist legal advice is essential, especially
where children, significant assets or family businesses are involved.
In cases of divorce, separation or the breakdown of an unmarried
relationship or Civil Partnership, we can advise on the division
of
property, capital assets and child maintenance. We can also formalise
arrangements in respect of the children if clients are unable to
resolve
matters themselves.
We specialise in the resolution of complex and high value marital
and
co-habitation disputes, often with a business element. Family companies
present some of the trickiest problems and we often work closely
with
forensic accountants and valuation experts.
We are also experienced in dealing with cases where one of the
parties
is resident abroad, which often leads to questions as to jurisdiction
and enforcement.
