Parenting
Report
If you are separated and have children, then you will need to put arrangements in place for the care of your children. The fundamental principle in parenting (custody) matters is the best interests of your children, balanced with the need to protect them from harm.
Parenting arrangements are best when they can be resolved amicably through negotiations, which can often include the help of a mediator, and then formalised with the help of solicitors.However, this is not always possible, so there are a range of options to explore, both outside of formal Court proceedings, and also once proceedings have been commenced in Court.

Property
Report
The division of the assets of a relationship can be very stressful, particularly where both parties need as much as possible to survive post-separation. However, it is often a good idea to get early advice on the process for achieving a property settlement and on the range of entitlements, to better equip and empower you to move on with life at the earliest possible stage, minimising stress and expense.
Divorce
Report
