Statistics Now Show That One Marriage In Three Is Likely To End In Divorce.
Unfortunately, yours may be one that is failing or has failed. The object of Divorce law is to untie the matrimonial knot as painlessly as possible and achieve a fair division of the financial assets of the marriage, giving priority to the needs of any children.
Our legal specialists have substantial experience and the sympathetic but firm approach that comes from a deep understanding of the relevant law and those solutions which are or are not possible.
Where children are involved, we are fully conversant with legislation as it affects children and will assist you in either resolving the dispute or making appropriate applications to the court. We aim to provide a cost effective service. We are neither mediators nor conciliators but we will always endeavour to pour oil on troubled waters and to negotiate rather than litigate. In fraught situations arising from the breakdown of personal relationships, a problem resolved by informed agreement is of far more value than a Court Order. We never forget that divorcing parents never cease to be parents and their role as such demands a residue of respect and trust for each other in the continuing upbringing
of the children.
When relationships break down, the consequences may extend well beyond the relationship itself. Issues of housing and welfare benefits may arise and - in some unfortunate cases - there may be local authority concern for the wellbeing of the children. We have a unit specialising in this field in which, perhaps more than any other, it is vital that advice is sought at the earliest possible stage. Our matrimonial lawyers liaise effectively with the other departments within the practice. Problems are recognised and referred to the appropriate Department and legal specialist.
