Divorce & Family Issues

Divorce, or any separation, and the resulting issues of child custody and access cause great distress to those affected.  At Wilson Nesbitt solicitors we care as much about the approach taken to sorting out your prenuptial, marriage, separation, divorce, children, violence, money & financial relief, civil partnership or other legal issues (such as stopping living with your partner) as the settlement itself.  How these matrimonial or partnership issues are resolved will lay the foundations of how you are able to move on and start your new life. 

Negotiation, Collaborative Law or Court:

We offer a number of service options.   Firstly we can informally negotiate with the other party's solicitor to see if an agreement can be reached.      Alternatively we can arrange for you to enter into a collaborative law process where one of our trained collaborative law solicitors negotiates with the other party and their collaborative law solicitor around a table or by conference call; such negotiations are non confrontational, civilised and efficient and the modern way of resolving differences on the breakdown of a relationship without recourse to Court.   Finally if Court is the only way to resolve matters for you we will ensure that your case is thoroughly prepared and vigorously argued for you in Court. 

Issues we can help you with:

Whether you are going into a relationship or trying to get out of one you may need legal guidance and help with some of the following: pre-nuptial or pre civil partnership agreements, judicial separation, clean break settlements, asset splits, child contact, adoption, divorce, domestic violence, family split wills, business splits, pensions, mortgages, inheritances, financial settlements, matrimonial agreements, maintenance, non molestation orders, property sales, wills and separation.

How we can help

We can give you free initial advice, guide you on what your options are, let you know whether you will qualify for legal aid and if not what the cost implications are for you.  Our team includes solicitors and family law executives who specialise in family, matrimonial and childrens law.    When necessary we can also bring in other colleagues who specialise in property selling, debt collection, will writing, business, tax or contract negotiation and settlement.
