Divorce & Children
As with the law in Canada, where the best interests of the child are paramount, we can help you to ensure your children's best interests are placed above all else. When a relationship breaks down, organising child contact is often the main priority for parents.
Typically, the arrangements that work the best are those agreed by the parents, whether it be through private negotiation or meditation. However, coming to an agreement is often a huge source of tension between parents, and it can sometimes prove difficult to keep everyone happy. Our solicitors understand smooth divorce process can help to avoid any unnecessary difficulties between parents. Our friendly and approachable family solicitors will work with you to come to an arrangement that has your interests at heart, keeping you informed of all the options open to you every step of the way. Where negotiations break down we can apply to the Court for an order to make arrangements for child custody and contact.
Dissolution of Civil Partnerships
As with divorce, we can help you with your dissolution to your civil partnership. We can help you come to an agreement over any child custody and contact arrangements, and try to come to an agreement through negotiation. Where negotiations are not progressing, we can initiate court proceedings on your behalf. On a decree of dissolution, the Court can make Orders to deal with financial provision and the residence and contact arrangements of any children of the relationship. Our solicitors are highly experienced in family law and are highly committed to ensuring you achieve the best outcome possible.
