These are all matters with which our family department, headed by His Honour Michael Cook, a former circuit judge and designated family judge, in conjunction with our wills and tax departments, is well equipped to deal.

Our aim is to achieve an outcome that first and foremost protects your rights and expectations but is also fair and acceptable to both partners with as little stress as possible, so that both of you can move on with the rest of your lives.

We subscribe to the Resolution Code of Practice for resolving family matters in a constructive way that is designed to preserve the dignity of you and your partner and, where possible, in a non-confrontational way.

We know that legal costs are always a concern and for this reason we offer two choices :

1. A free initial interview of up to 30 minutes without any commitment on your part to take the matter further;

2. An appointment with no time limit for which we charge our usual hourly rate
