Common situations

Situations we help with every day

Most people come to us at a difficult moment, not with a tidy legal question. Our family law solicitors act on situations like these all the time:

  • You have decided to divorce and want to understand the process, the cost and the likely timeline.
  • You have separated and need a fair financial settlement covering the home, savings and pensions.
  • You have reached an agreement and want it made legally binding through a consent order.
  • You are worried about money or property being moved before matters are settled.
  • You or your children are not safe and you need urgent protection from an abusive partner or family member.
  • You simply need clear, honest advice before you decide what to do next.

If your situation is not listed here, it does not mean we cannot help. Call us and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right firm for your matter.

Frequently Asked Questions

We handle family matters on a fixed fee, agreed in writing before we begin, so you know the cost from the start. The fee depends on whether your divorce is straightforward or involves contested finances. Start with a free short initial phone call, of up to five minutes, and we will explain what your matter is likely to cost.

Under the no-fault divorce process, a straightforward divorce usually takes around six to eight months from start to final order, partly because of a fixed twenty-week reflection period built into the law. Financial matters run alongside and can take longer if they are contested.

Often not. Many separations are resolved by agreement, and we can make that agreement legally binding through a consent order without a contested hearing. Court becomes necessary mainly where matters cannot be agreed, or where urgent protection is needed.

A consent order is a court-approved document that makes your financial agreement legally binding and final. Without one, a former spouse can bring a financial claim against you years later, so we usually recommend getting one even where things are amicable.

Yes. Where your matter does reach the family court, we can advise you and represent your position, whether it concerns finances or an urgent protective order.
