No. 1 family law solicitors Horsley

All parents want the best for their children, and this becomes even more paramount when facing separation or divorce. Our local family solicitors offer reassuring, thoughtful and legally sound support to guide you through this process.

Child arrangement issues involve big decisions about where a child will live and how much time they will spend with the other parent. The agreement also covers essential matters such as school choices, medical decisions and religious upbringing.

We will achieve outcomes in the best interests of our clients and their children, and do so as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.

Reaching financial settlements after separation and divorce is complex, especially when communication breaks down between the parties. Our family lawyers can provide expert advice tailored to your specific needs, negotiate on your behalf, and manage the court process if required.

We support our clients with the following sensitive financial issues: division of all shared and individual savings and property; negotiation of child maintenance; resolution of pension issues; protection and valuation of pre-marital and inherited wealth; and the protection and valuation of assets held in Trust.

Our family law solicitors specialise in the legal issues arising from cohabitation. Whether you need advice before you move in together, require a Cohabitation Agreement, or need guidance if things go wrong, we can help.

Even couples who have been together for a long time are not afforded the same legal protections upon relationship breakdown as married couples. Current legislation provides no framework for important issues such as division of savings, pensions, business interests or spousal maintenance.

Our family law specialists advise clients entering into a civil partnership and those dissolving one. We aim to resolve all family disputes in the most constructive and non-confrontational way possible.

If you are dissolving a civil partnership, our lawyers offer full advice, support and guidance throughout the process. We encourage and support our clients to reach an agreement on the division of assets and the financial security of any children involved.

Pre and post-nuptial agreements are legal documents that set out how a couple's assets will be divided if the marriage or civil partnership ends. This includes specific details about finances and, crucially, children.

Our family lawyers can help you draft a prenuptial agreement before you get married or a postnuptial agreement, which can be created at any point after you are married.

Injunctions are formal court orders that require a named person to do or refrain from doing something. In family law, clients most commonly seek injunctions against current or former husbands, wives and partners for personal protection.

We offer expert legal advice and representation for all types of injunctions and emergency applications.
