  “It has a certain class about it - the lawyers will find pragmatic solutions to problems without ever being aggressive.”  ( Chambers 2009)  
Family: Our approach

Experienced

We are consistently rated by the Legal 500 and Chambers as one of the UK's leading law firms for family matters. We have a wealth of experience in all the issues that individuals and families may encounter, from drafting co-habitation and pre-nuptial agreements to settling divorces and dealing with issues involving children. Much of our work concerns complex situations, frequently involving substantial assets, international elements, private companies, trusts and taxation issues.

We have a large team of family lawyers and are proud that most of our new clients come to us on the strength of personal recommendations from other clients.

Understanding

By gaining a clear understanding of clients' aims, the issues involved and any special circumstances, we are able to focus on achieving the desired results. We provide advice that is both realistic and objective and keep our clients' interests first and foremost at all times.

We appreciate that the breakdown of family relationships is usually accompanied by significant emotional and financial pressure. We enjoy a reputation for minimising the stress and successfully resolving even the most complicated matters. We are skilled negotiators and experienced in gathering the information that enables us to find the most practical, cost-effective and workable solutions.

Discreet and personal service

In all legal matters confidentiality and discretion are of the utmost importance. We are extremely sensitive to this when dealing with family matters and are on hand to answer important questions as they arise and assure clients that matters will be handled and resolved as efficiently and discreetly as possible.

Every client is assigned a dedicated lawyer who, where appropriate, will assemble a team with the right mix of skills and expertise to deal with the matter in hand. Clients appreciate the way we work: we are sensitive, approachable and accessible at all times.

Keeping clients informed

From the outset, we map out the direction we expect our work to take and estimate the costs involved, keeping clients informed of developments at all times.
