Considering Divorce or Separation

The breakdown of a marriage and subsequent decision to divorce is stressful and will affect people in different ways.  Our experienced family lawyers provide sympathetic advice and will guide and support you through the legal and practical considerations of a divorce. We will listen and discuss the options open to you, working alongside you to minimise the distress the end of a relationship can bring.  

We work with clients from all walks of life.  Many of our clients facing divorce (or their spouses) have international connections, are high net worth individuals or are professionals. 

Our experienced team understand the fundamental importance of  thinking about the children in a divorce.

We have considerable experience representing clients throughout a divorce until a final decision is made by the court; but we are equally comfortable assisting clients ‘behind the scenes’, whether they are seeking to agree matters directly with their former partner or representing themselves in court.

We have equal expertise in litigation and in non-court methods of resolving a divorce, including mediation, collaborative law and arbitration.  We will spend time understanding your goals and priorities so that we can achieve the best outcome for you and your family.

We tailor our approach to you and your priorities and we will make sure you are fully supported both through the process and after it. During the divorce, we regularly work with mediators, counsellors, family therapists and other medical professionals. We make sure our clients are fully supported once the divorce is finalised, with help from trusted financial advisors and counsellors.

We will advise you on all aspects of your divorce, including:

• The divorce process
• Separation
• International divorce / choosing the right divorce jurisdiction
• Financial arrangements
• Children
