What can our family law solicitors, Stockport, help with?

Our network comprises of teams of family solicitors in Stockport who handle a wide range of family matters. Some of the most common situations we deal with include the following:

• Divorce – Relationship breakdowns bring up a lot of issues to consider, from financial settlements to the sharing of childcare. Ending a marriage or civil partnership is rarely easy and can be a particularly difficult process for those involved, including the couple and the wider family. Our panel of divorce solicitors have the experience and expertise required to assist you throughout your divorce case, from applying for a divorce right through to finalising the divorce and dealing with any financial issues.
• Financial relief – Ancillary or financial relief refers to the financial arrangements related to divorce proceedings. This is where the divorced couple deal with the division of assets and resolve any financial disputes. These proceedings are not dealt with during divorce proceedings as they are a separate matter. However, they may run at the same time as the divorce proceedings. Whether you require assistance for complex financial matters, or if you simply wish to sort the division of your family home and property, get in touch with our panel of divorce lawyers to discuss your situation.
• Domestic abuse – Domestic violence and emotional abuse can happen to anyone, and it can have a lasting impact on victims of abuse. Expert Family Law have a panel of specialist domestic abuse solicitors who can provide confidential advice and assistance to victims of domestic violence, emotional abuse, and financial abuse.
• Child arrangement – The breakdown of any relationship is never easy, especially when children are involved. It is essential that parents can reach an agreement on child contact and childcare arrangements. Our panel of solicitors will provide legal advice and assistance in applications for child arrangement orders. Alongside Child Arrangement Orders, our panel of solicitors may also assist with Specific Issue Orders and Prohibited Steps Orders.
• Other types of agreements – Our solicitor firms also assist in the drafting and negotiation of other types of agreements, such as cohabitation agreements, pre-nuptial agreements and post-nuptial agreements.

Can you resolve a family dispute without a solicitor?

Not all family disputes require the involvement of a solicitor. Many family issues, including divorce, child arrangements, and financial settlements, can be resolved through alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods. ADR is often a more cost effective, faster, and less stressful alternative to court proceedings.

In simpler cases, families may be able to reach agreements independently. If both parties are in agreement, they can draft a written arrangement regarding finances or child custody, which can then be formalised into a legally binding consent order.

However, for more complex disputes, particularly those involving children, significant financial assets, or cases where ADR is not effective, it is advisable to seek legal advice from a qualified family lawyer to ensure your rights and interests are protected.
