What about me? Reframing Support for Families following Parental Separation – The Family Solutions Group (FSG) Report - One year on

Legal 500 UK, The Clients Guide to Law Firms
We have considerable expertise in guiding our clients through the legal issues affecting their children. We experience first-hand the need for children to be placed at the centre of all decisions made following a separation. Our advice is child-centred and draws on years of experience. We offer practical solutions that aim to minimise distress to children. We will give you clear and responsive advice in emergency situations.
Our clients’ first concern is often what will happen to their children as a result of the divorce or separation. We support clients and, where relevant, we seek input from other expert professionals (for example, child and family therapists, counsellors, mediators and child psychologists). We recognise that legal solutions imposed by the court are not always in the best interests of our clients and their children, but in some circumstances, a court process is necessary.
As all parents will know, every child is different and will respond differently to their parents’ separation – there will often be a range of emotions and reactions. Children may feel that their entire world is changing and they are usually apprehensive about what will happen next.
We appreciate that a solution that worked for one family is not necessarily appropriate for yours. We will spend time understanding your goals and priorities so that we can achieve the best outcome for you and your family. We can discuss preparing a parenting agreement if setting out any agreed arrangements.
We understand the importance of helping you resolve potential or actual disputes as quickly and amicably as possible, recognising your need to maintain an ongoing relationship as parents in the future. When court proceedings are necessary, we use our experience to guide you through the process and ensure you have robust representation.
