WOODCOCKS HERE AS DIVORCE SEASON HITS
A leading Bury law firm is encouraging people to take advantage of the offer of free, expert advice as ‘divorce season’ sweeps the UK.
The number of couples divorcing has risen by 4.9%, according to National Statistics, with the New Year widely regarded as the time when most proceedings are started.
Solicitors from Woodcocks believe that access to legal advice is a vital first step. The specialist family law team at the firm will be holding free drop-in advice sessions for anyone seeking to talk to a professional.
Partner Margret Mahon explains: “After the intensified tensions of the festive season, the New Year period can be a very hard time for couples who are thinking of divorcing, often seeking early advice from a professional can help a person understand the issues that need to be addressed, the help available and the likely outcome.
“Where children are involved these problems can be even greater and the need to get things clear is even more important. We are holding free drop in sessions at our offices where people can access free, expert initial advice from our team of caring professionals.”
The free surgeries will be taking place at Woodcocks offices in Bury, Rawtenstall and Bacup every Monday afternoon between 3pm and 5pm. No booking is necessary and the team is available to advise on a range of family matters.
