IDEALLY PLACED TO RESOLVE ISSUES FOR CLIENTS WITH PARTICULARLY COMPLEX AFFAIRS, INCLUDING BUSINESS OWNERS
Our specialist team of divorce lawyers provides a tailored service during your divorce to remedy family and financial issues and achieve the best possible outcome for you. Our divorce lawyers are highly regarded and advise and act for clients all over England and Wales, as well as those living overseas.
Obtaining a divorce is not necessarily going to be straightforward, even if both parties agree that the marriage is over. Challenges often arise in agreeing the reasons for the separation, how and when to separate, where to live, what arrangements to make for children and the financial settlement.

Main Areas Of Practice
Our team of divorce lawyers is highly experienced in dealing with all types of separation and the issues arising from it including:
Divorce and Civil Partnership dissolution
In most cases this is a straightforward process but it can be very complex. Our divorce and civil partnership dissolution lawyers will look after you, working efficiently and sensitively and take time to explain the process and options open to you.
Financial Orders
You will need to think about how capital, pension provision and income should be divided upon divorce or dissolution. We will advise you about this complex area of law and help you to identify the best way of achieving your objectives, whether through solicitor negotiation, mediation, collaborative law or, where necessary, Court proceedings or arbitration.
Divorces with overseas property or residency issues
The English Courts can deal with worldwide assets and our divorce lawyers have expertise in dealing with couples who live abroad but remain domiciled and have property in England and Wales. Likewise, they can deal with couples who are resident in England and Wales but have, often, significant investments and assets abroad.
Enforcement
Our specialist divorce lawyers are trained and have expertise in serving Orders abroad and arranging enforcement, enforcing English Orders against English assets and looking at matters in a proactive and creative way.
