Leading Family Law Solicitors in Reading and Henley-on-Thames
We recognise that a relationship breakdown and other family related issues can be complex, as well as emotionally and financially challenging for you.
If you are considering separation or divorce, or are seeking advice in relation to another family matter, you will want to find a carefully chosen solicitor who is a specialist in Family Law, understands and is sensitive to your situation and is on-hand when needed. The area of Family Law is fast moving and only a solicitor who spends all their time working in this field can stay abreast of all the developments. You may find our blog article, 'Choosing a Solicitor Who is a Specialist Family Lawyer' helpful.
Our team is experienced in dealing with Family Law cases ranging from the relatively straightforward, through to complex and high value divorces, including those involving children or significant assets (including property, business shareholdings, trusts and overseas interests). We can also advise on areas including nuptial agreements, domestic abuse, surrogacy, enforcement and appeals.
Finding the right approach
Recognising the need to find the right approach for you, a member of our team can discuss and help to assess your individual situation and provide clear and practical advice on a way forward which will achieve the best outcome for you and your family, while helping to carefully manage costs.
All of our solicitors are members of Family Law body Resolution and committed to its ethos of adopting a constructive approach to resolving family disputes. As such, we offer several alternatives to Court litigation, including mediation, collaborative law, arbitration and early neutral evaluation, providing you the opportunity to deal with matters without the need to attend Court. We are also experienced in using other methods to resolve disputes, such as round table meetings and private financial dispute resolution hearings (FDRs).
