We act for individuals with issues in all aspects of family life, whether you are married, in civil partnership, or cohabit.
If there is a mutual separation then we can act in an advisory capacity, saving costs and maintaining a relationship between the parties.
We advise cohabitees dealing with money, property and children. The position in law is by no means the same as for married couples. Different rules apply to those on divorce when such a relationship breaks down.
Although pre-nuptial agreements are not recognised by English law, they can have relevance. We are experienced in drafting such agreements.
Children have their own rights and can be represented in their own capacity.
