We have a full team of vastly experienced senior solicitors dealing with all aspects of family law. We are supported by assistant solicitors, trainee solicitors, clerks and other support staff.

The areas we specialise in include:

  • Separation of married couples, co-habiting couples and civil partners.

  • Divorce of married couples and dissolution of civil partnerships.

  • All aspects of financial dispute on separation or divorce, including emergency applications to protect assets.

  • Pre-nuptial and separation agreements.

  • Domestic violence and injunction proceedings.

  • Private law matters concerning children – e.g residence, contact, specific issue, prohibited steps, parental responsibility guardianship.

  • Public law matters concerning children – eg applications by Local Authorities for care orders, supervision orders, emergency protection orders, applications for contact to children who are in care – and representing parents or other carers at conferences and meetings with Social Services both before and after proceedings.

  • Specialist mediation service both in relation to children and/or finances on relationship breakdown.

  • Family wills and change of name.

  • Cohabition agreements/advice about holding property for cohabiting couples.
We offer a specialist service in relation to all of the above areas at our Runcorn, Walton Vale and Weaverham offices, and we have a dedicated mediation suite in Liverpool city centre.
