About

Our approach
Our family lawyers provide the knowledge and support clients need to make informed decisions. By understanding individual situations, our legal experts tailor their advice to fit clients’ specific requirements.
We believe clients should know what is best for themselves and their families, so we encourage out-of-court settlements whenever possible. Our solicitors equip clients with the knowledge and confidence to reach their own financial settlements and agree on the best child arrangements, reducing unnecessary stress and court fees. However, if court action is necessary, our experienced team of family law specialists has the expertise to help secure the best possible outcome.
Our experience
Recognised as one of the leading family law teams in England, our family solicitors are known for providing first-class advice with a personal touch. We frequently advise on a wide range of family law issues, including divorce, finances, child arrangements, cohabitation, and pre- and postnuptial agreements.
We regularly handle high-net-worth cases involving international elements, broadening our legal advice capabilities to encompass foreign laws and regulations. Our strong relationships with family lawyers outside the UK enable us to efficiently address overseas issues.
