Family

There's so much more to family law than helping couples to get divorced, and we can help you through all of it. When it's time to put yourself in the hands of a professional who will give you straightforward advice and lend a sympathetic ear, it's time to talk to our dedicated team of family specialists.

We believe in taking a conciliatory approach. In fact as members of the Solicitors' Family Law Association (now known as 'Resolution'), we work to a specific code of conduct which requires that we look for fair and peaceful solutions, rather than battle tactics.

We know how difficult a time it can be, so you'll find our family specialists especially patient and understanding, with a reputation for providing sound advice and a caring and sensitive service. We belong to the Law Society's Family Panel and some of the team are members of the Law Society's Children's Panel, with specific expertise in situations involving children and care cases.
