No-one wants to consult a divorce lawyer. But not all divorce lawyers are the same.
At Family Law in Partnership, we understand that divorce and separation can be incredibly difficult. We want to help, and we pride ourselves in doing things differently. We recognise the trust that clients place in us and approach our work with heart, care and compassion.
We have an award-winning team of specialist family lawyers, arbitrators, family mediators and divorce consultants who provide exceptional advice on all family law issues. Whether you want someone with you every step of the way, or prefer advice as and when you need it, we can assist.
We have extensive experience of acting for national and international clients from all walks of life. Whether you are a High Net Worth, or Ultra High Net Worth, individual with complex business and trust assets; an individual with complicated international connections; or someone who is simply looking for the very best family law advice, we will guide and protect you through every turn.
Reaching an agreement on financial matters can be complicated. Our lawyers regularly advise on cases involving financial complexity including those with hidden assets, family companies and trust structures. We can also help with pre-nuptial and postnuptial agreements. And we advise couples who separate after cohabiting or those whose civil partnership has broken down. Our expertise in these areas is second to none.
Sometimes going to court is the only option but there are many other services we offer, such as solicitor-led negotiation, collaborative law, family mediation and arbitration. We pride ourselves in being settlement focused.
At the heart of everything that we do is a desire to use our depth and breadth of expertise to provide tailored solutions which deliver the very best outcomes for our clients.
