Family and Divorce
The breakdown of a relationship can be a traumatic time.At Letchers Solicitors our experienced family team understand that a relationship breakdown can be one of the most stressful and painful episodes of your life. The questions, which most often arise in the first instance relate to children and financial issues. We can offer expert help and advice, our Family and Divorce specialists will adopt a sympathetic yet positive approach in every case, and will give specific and tailored advice. Furthermore, they recognise the need to be cost-effective so that any assets are not swallowed up by any ensuing Family or Divorce proceedings.
The Family and Divorce team are able to advise on all aspects of divorce, separation, children, cohabitation and financial issues and will explain the powers of the court and the other ways your issues can be resolved, such as through the Collaborative Law process or Mediation. Both Ianthe Slinger and Michael Stocken, are skilled and experienced family lawyers who are able to advise you on more thorny issues such as the Family Business, complex and high net asset cases and children matters.
If children need to be considered then every effort will be made to reach an agreement with the other parent as to what provisions should be made for their care and support. If this is not possible then we are here to advise you on matters such as:
- Contact Orders
- Parental Responsibility Orders
- Prohibited Steps Orders
- Residence Orders
- Specific Issue Orders
In addition, we have extensive experience in providing legal advice for unmarried couples and single parent families.
