Family law disputes often arise from:

- Disagreement Over Children: Conflicts about where children live, schooling, or contact with parents.
- Financial Disputes: Disputes over dividing assets, maintenance payments, or debts during divorce or separation.
- Unfair Agreements: Pre- or post-nuptial agreements that are challenged for being unfair or signed under duress.
- Domestic Abuse: Situations requiring urgent legal protection to ensure safety.
- Cohabitation Breakdown: Disputes over property or finances for unmarried couples who lack the same legal protections as married couples.

We work to resolve these issues efficiently, prioritising the welfare of children and fair outcomes for all parties.

Family law cases vary depending on the issue, but our team guide you through the key steps:


Initial Consultation and Negotiation:
- We assess your case, explain your rights, and explore options like mediation to resolve disputes amicably.
- For divorce, we assist with filing the divorce petition or responding to one, ensuring compliance with court requirements.

Mediation:
- Where appropriate, we arrange mediation sessions to reach agreements on children or finances without court involvement.
- Our team prepares you for mediation and reviews any agreements to ensure they are fair and legally binding.

Court Applications:
- If disputes cannot be resolved, we apply for court orders, such as Child Arrangement Orders, Financial Orders, or Non-Molestation Orders.
- We prepare all necessary documents, including Form E for financial disclosures, and represent you at hearings in the Family Court.

Court Hearings:
- Our team provide skilled representation at court, presenting evidence and arguments to secure the best outcome.
- For children cases, the court prioritises the child’s welfare, and we ensure your case aligns with this principle.

Enforcement or Appeals:
- If a court order is breached (e.g., non-payment of maintenance), we can apply for enforcement.
- If a court decision is unfair, we guide you through the appeals process to challenge it.
