FAQs

Child arrangements – what do you need to consider and what is a 'usual' arrangement?

When parents separate, deciding where children will live and how they’ll spend time with each parent can be challenging. The law prioritises what’s best for the child, assuming both parents' involvement is generally beneficial unless there's a risk of harm. Every family is different—some children thrive in shared-care arrangements, while others need a primary home base with flexible holiday plans. Factors like work schedules, schooling and new family dynamics can further shape arrangements.

We are specialists when it comes to child arrangements and can help you navigate the process with ease.

Where do you start with matrimonial finances?

It’s helpful to divide the process into short-term and long-term phases. The short-term focuses on income-related needs. Begin by evaluating your essential outgoings, such as rent or mortgage, food and utilities. Total your basic income needs by reviewing bank statements and check if you qualify for a council tax reduction. Next, consider your income sources, including earned income, benefits, and child maintenance and determine if your former partner will contribute or if a court order is necessary.

In the long term, planning focuses on stability and growth. This includes the division of assets, maintenance payments and legal protection.

This can all seem very overwhelming. There is a lot to consider and proper advice is essential to ensure you get a fair settlement.

Do you need a solicitor to get divorced?

Not in all cases, however, divorce can be a long and complicated process. Having an experienced solicitor could make all the difference. The divorce process can be long and complicated, and even the most amicable divorce can become messy without legal professionals on hand to make sure things are streamlined and as smooth as possible.

You're not alone. We're with you every step of the way.

Family matters can be emotional and overwhelming, but you won’t face them alone. From the very start, you’ll have a dedicated and experienced solicitor guiding you through each step with clarity and care. We’ll keep you informed, explain your options in plain language, and make sure you always feel supported. Our priority is to help you reach a fair outcome and feel ready to move forward with confidence.
