Family Law
Our Family Law Team aim to find the most beneficial legal and pragmatic outcome for clients and their family often in distressing and difficult circumstances.Once problems have arisen we will aim to negotiate a sensible settlement to any differences which may have arisen with a partner out of court if at all possible as litigation can be unpredictable in terms of outcome. If no sensible terms for settlement can be agreed we will raise court proceedings and pursue these efficiently and robustly to a conclusion.
We can also assist in avoiding future problems at the outset of a relationship. You may well not be considering the possibility of future separation at this stage however it should be appreciated that marriage, civil partnership and cohabitation all create legal rights and obligation.By making a Pre-Nuptial or Cohabitation Agreement, for example, you may be able to prevent legal disputes about those rights and obligations in the future or at least minimise their consequences.
