Financial Remedy, Divorce and Child Custody

We support clients through divorce, separation and disputes over children, with practical advice focused on resolving matters as constructively as possible.

Overview

Family matters are rarely simple, and they're almost always personal. Whether you're going through a divorce, negotiating arrangements for your children, or protecting your assets, we approach every case with discretion and a focus on practical, workable outcomes.

We aim to resolve matters without unnecessary conflict wherever possible, while being ready to represent you robustly if court proceedings become necessary.

Every family situation is different, and cookie-cutter advice rarely serves anyone well. We take the time to understand your circumstances, including any children involved, before setting out your options and the likely timeline for resolving things.

In Depth

Understanding Financial Remedy, Divorce and Child Custody

Family law covers the legal side of relationship breakdown and family life, including divorce, financial settlements, and arrangements for children. In England and Wales, most divorces now proceed on a 'no fault' basis, meaning neither party needs to prove wrongdoing to bring the marriage to an end.

Where children are involved, arrangements for their care are usually agreed between parents directly or through mediation, with court involvement reserved for cases where agreement can't be reached. The starting point in any dispute is the welfare of the child, rather than what either parent might prefer.

Financial matters on divorce can be some of the most contested, particularly where there are significant assets, a family business, or a large disparity in income between the parties. Getting early advice on your financial position can help you understand what a fair settlement might look like before negotiations begin.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a divorce take?

Timescales depend on whether the divorce is contested and how quickly financial matters are resolved. We'll walk you through what to expect at your first meeting.

Do I need to go to court?

Many family matters are resolved through negotiation or mediation without a court hearing. We'll always explore the least adversarial route first.

Can you help with an urgent situation?

Yes — where safety is a concern, we can act quickly to apply for protective orders.

What is a ‘no fault’ divorce?

It's a divorce process that doesn't require either party to blame the other for the breakdown of the marriage, which tends to reduce conflict during proceedings.

Will I have to sell the family home?

Not necessarily — this depends on the overall financial settlement and what arrangements work best for any children involved. We'll talk through the options with you.

Can arrangements for children be changed later?

Yes, arrangements can be revisited if circumstances change significantly, such as a change in work, health or living situation.
