| 22. Mackarness & Lunt Solicitors, Petersfield
|
At Mackarness & Lunt we have wide experience of divorce, family law, disputes between parents as to their children and financial matters. We are committed to dealing with family matters in a sympathetic manner and in a way that seeks to reduce bitterness and trauma.
The proceedings for a divorce can be complicated and advice is needed on how to start and respond to the action. Arrangements for residence and contact with the children need careful consideration.
Financial matters following the breakdown are of vital importance to the parties and Samantha will be able to assist by negotiating an agreement. If agreement cannot be reached then the parties need realistic advice and expert preparation and representation at a Court hearing.
Advice can be given as to the assessment of child support payable under the Child Support Act and how the Child Support Agency may become involved. The tax implications of maintenance orders are also most important.
Sometimes couples do not wish formally to end their marriage at the time of breakdown. They may wish to enter into a deed of separation. This is a written agreement setting out the terms agreed as to financial matters and property. It can also deal with arrangements for children and when there should be divorce proceedings.
If divorce follows, the Court may be asked to make an order in accordance with the terms of the deed. It is vital therefore to have the terms of any agreement properly negotiated with full disclosure being made on both sides.
Breakdown of relationships between unmarried couples causes many of the same problems but the legal position may be very different in relation to their property and sometimes also their children. We have wide experience of these problems and the legal remedies available.
A mediator can help you work out arrangements with your partner. A mediator does not decide any issues, you do. The mediator is simply there to help. We can refer you to experienced mediators
First, we recommend that you arrange a no ? obligation fixed fee initial consultation with us limited to a cost of ?40 which includes the VAT. but if work commitments restrict this then it may be possible for this to take place over the telephone.
This is an opportunity for you to discuss with us your particular circumstances and we can advise you on what to do next.
At the end of the fixed fee consultation you have a number of options open to you, you may even decide not to take any further action at this stage. We will however keep all details from our meeting should you wish to return in the future.
We can give you a fixed fee quote to complete your divorce or prepare your deed of separation. A simple, non-contested divorce can cost as little as ?600/?700 plus VAT. In any divorce case there are also fees to be paid to the court. These are currently ?300 payable when the petition is filed and ?40 to apply for the Decree Absolute at the end of the case.
I am proud to work in the very same building as my great-great-uncle who moved from Alresford to Petersfield at the turn of the century, and then to the present offices in 1925.However, this does not mean that we are just looking to the past. Sensitive investment in new technology has meant that we can achieve our aim of providing up to the minute legal services, without sacrificing our reputation as a friendly partnership with a firm base in the community. |

Any problems affecting the family are likely to be stressful, whether it is separation, divorce, disputes over children or the involvement of Social Services.
Members of our Family Law Department appreciate the difficulties, having between them many years of experience in this type of work and aim to deal with problems sympathetically, promptly and with the minimum of acrimony.
All members of the Department belong to the Resolution (previously Solicitors Family Law Association), who embrace these principles in their code of practice. We also have lawyers who are members of the Law Society's Personal Injury and Family Panels.
As members of Resolution, we are committed to establishing the best may forward for individual clients to resolve their difficulties and offer a number of alternative processes such as negotiated settlement, mediation and collaborative law.
We conduct a half-hour fixed fee interview for ?10.00 inclusive of VAT.
There are a number of ways in which an unhappy or unsatisfactory marriage can be brought to a conclusion and the method chosen depends on a number of factors:
Annulment - this is the least common way. It has the advantage that proceedings can be commenced at any time after the marriage - there is no waiting period. However the grounds are extremely limited and it is very unusual to be able to bring the circumstances of a marriage within the legal requirements.
Separation - although it is not strictly necessary to have a legal document evidencing the fact that parties have separated, it can be beneficial, both to act as evidence and also to identify the issues which need to be agreed. A Separation Agreement can contain whatever information the parties feel they need to record as having been agreed, but of course by it's very nature the terms have to be agreed between the parties.
Divorce - it is only possible to present a Divorce Petition one year and one day after the marriage. |

| 24. Solicitors in Portsmouth - Gurney-Champion & Co.
|
We offer a sympathetic and professional approach to dealing with divorce. We can draw up the divorce petition and submit this to the Court.
Once this is issued, we can apply for the second stage of divorce, called Decree Nisi. Normally once six weeks have elapsed we can then apply for Decree Absolute, the final stage of the proceedings.
Usually one of the most important factors in the break up of a family are the children. Deciding who they should live with is the first step. Often the absent parent will wish to see the children and we can help deal with these arrangements.An important legal concept is "parental responsibility" which can give someone the rights and responsibilities of being a parent. |
