1. Glazer Delmar - London Solicitors UK
 |
The members of our family department know that when problems arise within families they must be dealt with sensitively, sympathetically and efficiently.
We take a conciliatory approach towards relationship breakdown. And, if your case is suitable, we will always recommend mediation as a way to a speedy, amicable resolution. Mediation enables you to sit down and discuss your problems with an impartial person. Hopefully you'll resolve them without the need to go to court.
If, however, an amicable solution cannot be reached, then we are prepared to be firm and to assist you in seeking the court's help. Wherever possible, though, we avoid court action, which can prove stressful and costly to you.
As one of south east London's largest law firms, we're able to offer you a wide range of top-quality legal support and advice.
We're approachable, yet always professional. We're reliable, consistent and each of us has a genuine desire to exceed your expectations.
And although our newly-refurbished air-conditioned offices are just a few minutes from central London, we're able to provide you with a great value service. |

| 2. Middleton & Upsall, Specialist Legal Advice
|
Our private family law team is experienced in dealing with the consequences of the breakdown of relationships in a sensitive, constructive and cost effective way. We recognise the emotional and traumatic effect of separation and divorce and that decisions which have to be made at that time may affect the rest of your life.
A Domestic Violence Injunction can be obtained during divorce proceedings or separately. There are two types of Domestic Violence Injunction:
Non-Molestation Orders. These Orders can be made to protect adults or children from harassment, intimidation or threats of violence from an associated person or someone else instructed by that person to do one or all of those things.
Occupation Orders. An Occupation Order is an Injunction which relates to property and can determine who is allowed to continue to live in a property in the short term after there has been domestic violence. The Order can exclude a person who owns or has an interest in the property from either part of it or indeed the whole of the property. The Order can also enable a person who has been wrongly excluded or evicted from the property to go back to it.

| 3. Judge & Priestley Solicitors
|
For more than 100 years we have been providing Clients with expert and professional legal advice. We understand the value of a personal and friendly service but we also recognise the need to move with the times and today Judge & Priestley LLP are a modern, progressive firm providing constructive and effective legal advice to meet our Clients' requirements.
Judge & Priestley LLP believe that Family Law is not simply another form of litigation and therefore requires to be handled by people who are not only knowledgeable in the field but also able to provide support at what will be a difficult time. We have extensive experience in this specialised area of law, which enables us to provide authoritative advice on matters of finance, property and children.
We are well equipped to advise on all forms of relationship disputes, whether it be resolving issues before cohabitation commences or helping to sort out the consequences of a relationship breakdown. We are also able to deal with child related issues.
Our aim is to provide a friendly personal service, which meets the needs of the Client whilst seeking to reduce conflict between the parties. We are members of Resolution (formerly known as ?Solicitors Family Law Association?) with an accredited code of conduct and we can offer the benefits of mediation as an alternative means of resolving issues. Initial appointments are offered at a fixed fee where we assess the merits of the case and provide preliminary advice. Thereafter a dedicated Solicitor will handle the case so that specialist advice will always be available. It is our policy to ensure that as far as possible, you are represented at Court hearings by an experienced member of the department. The nature and timing of some hearings may however mean that a barrister will be booked to attend on your behalf and we have a close relationship with a number of barristers specialising in the field of Family Law.
We believe that decisions should be made by Clients and not by Courts, and we therefore believe that mediation is a cost-effective alternative to litigation. This practice is promoted by the Court and as such we are able to provide staff trained in this field to assist you every step of the way.
What sets us apart from other law firms? In a word, friendliness. We are experts in our field but we have never lost sight of the fact that a Client, whether an individual, business or local authority, is unique.
We take the time to get to know our Clients and their legal requirements, not just because we believe in good old-fashioned personal service but because we think we can only give sound advice if we really understand our Clients as people. In all our specialist areas you will find that we are not only highly experienced and professional but also friendly and easy to talk to. |

| 4. CWJ - Solicitors (Orpington, Kent)
|
The breakdown of any relationship can be traumatic and stressful, and our dedicated team of family law specialists have the knowledge and experience to provide caring, practical and clear advice to guide you through what is often a distressing time.
As members of Resolution (formerly the Solicitors Family Law Association), the team is committed to resolving family law issues in a sensitive, constructive and cost effective way.
Our varied experience includes negotiating divorce settlements at all levels from the most straightforward cases to the most complicated, involving complex issues relating to businesses, pensions and other assets.
If you have been financially dependent upon your husband or wife throughout the marriage, then you may be eligible for spousal maintenance after the divorce where appropriate. The Court would consider your income and outgoings and those of your husband or wife and then make an order for spousal maintenance if appropriate.
If you are not living with your child and you are earning an income then you will have to pay child maintenance. This is assessed as 15% of your net income for one child, 20% for two children and 25% for three children. If you have your child to stay with you for over 52 nights per annum then this would be reduced by 1/7th and if you have them to stay with you for over 104 nights per annum it would be reduced by 2/7ths. If you have a new family with children (natural or not) and you live with them, further reductions will apply. |

| 5. ASB Law
|
The majority of our 14-strong team of family lawyers are members of the Resolution (formerly the Solicitors Family Law Association). We observe the Resolution Code of Practice which is designed to promote a conciliatory approach to resolving family matters, and assists in a constructive and cost-effective way.
Most of our lawyers are also members of the Law Society?s Family and Children Panel, and three of our lawyers are trained mediators.
That experience speaks for itself : in the most difficult of circumstances, we have the experts who can help.
Many people will only seek legal advice when they?re having problems. The statistics on divorce and separation are well known and unavoidable, and they don?t prevent a relationship breakdown being both distressing and confusing.
If you?re contemplating a separation, you need both legal and emotional support during a difficult time. There are many things to think about, procedures to consider and decisions to make and our experienced team of family lawyers can guide you through the processes, dealing with highly personal matters in a manner that is both sensitive and pragmatic. |

| 7. Solicitors Online Khilkoff-Boulding & Co
|
Khilkoff-Boulding's Family Department is particularly strong. Our team of practitioners, supported by experienced and competent staff, has many years of practice of family law under its collective belt.
Family and Matrimonial law encompasses Divorce, Separation, Financial Disputes, Residence for and Contact with children, Domestic violence, Children's care proceedings, Wardship, Guardianship, public law proceedings etc. Khilkoff Boulding and Co. can provide a helpful and realistic family law service dealing with all the above, as well as family financial, tax planning and trusts work.
Khilkoff-Boulding is one of the few firms in Kent which can not only provide an accredited specialist in children's' public law matters, but also a fully trained, legally qualified family mediator (who can act as such independently in cases where neither of the parties have instructed the firm). Both of these specialists are members of the Solicitors Family Law Association, and one is a member of the Law Society's Children Panel.
A fair division of the family assets, including the matrimonial home, must be worked out. In the majority of cases this is achieved by negotiation between solicitors and agreement between the parties, and agreement between the parties, or their approval by the Court. If agreement cannot be reached then Court Proceedings (Ancillary Relief) will be initiated and will result either in an eventual settlement, or the Court will decide the financial outcome for the parties without their consent.
Where the children of the relationship reside and how much contact they have between their parents is ideally best arranged between those concerned, voluntarily. If arrangements cannot be agreed, the Court can be asked to decide matters of the children?s residence and contact with the other parent. |
