Family Law
Our specialist family law team offers prompt, cost effective and pragmatic advice to individuals, families and their advisers to mitigate the financial risks that relationship breakdowns can create.
We can advise you on a broad range of safeguards, including pre-nuptial, post-nuptial and cohabitation agreements.
Where conflict cannot be avoided, we will give you sensitive and comprehensive advice on separation, divorce and civil partnership dissolution; in particular, in relation to any financial or children issues that arise. We regularly advise on cross-border family disputes.
We understand that unlike many other areas of litigation, parties involved in civil, criminal and family disputes often need to maintain a relationship after a dispute has been resolved, so we promote and adopt collaborative and alternative dispute resolution solutions wherever appropriate. If litigation cannot be avoided, we have a reputation for representing our clients' interests firmly and fairly at court.
As a full service and integrated firm, we also work in partnership with our property, litigation and private client specialists to assist individuals and families involved in disputes.
