Our family law services in Crawley
Divorce, separation and civil partnership dissolution
Separating from a partner can be a challenging and emotional process, making it crucial to have expert legal support. Whether you are considering divorce, ending a civil partnership, or formalising a separation agreement, our solicitors will ensure you understand your rights and options.
Our Crawley divorce solicitors provide tailored legal advice, whether your case is straightforward or involves more complex factors such as business assets or international considerations. If your case requires specialist support, we are highly experienced in handling international divorces.
We aim to resolve matters amicably through negotiation and mediation, avoiding court proceedings where possible. However, if litigation is required, we will provide strong representation to secure the best possible result.
Financial settlements
Sorting out financial matters after separation is often one of the most difficult aspects of divorce. Ensuring assets are divided fairly can be complicated, particularly when pensions, multiple properties, or business interests are involved.
Our Crawley family law solicitors can assist you in negotiating a legally binding agreement. We have extensive experience in reaching solutions that protect your financial interests while aiming to avoid unnecessary disputes. If an agreement cannot be reached through mediation, we are prepared to represent you in arbitration or court proceedings.
Children
For parents, ensuring their children’s welfare after separation is a priority. While many families are able to come to an arrangement themselves, some situations require legal guidance to protect parental rights and the child’s best interests.
Our child law solicitors assist in securing child arrangements orders that set out where a child will live and how much time they will spend with each parent. If necessary, we can also help with resolving disputes over specific issues such as schooling or relocation.
We offer clear, practical guidance on the best approach for your family, ensuring the legal process is as smooth as possible.
Prenuptial agreements
A prenuptial agreement is a valuable way to protect your financial interests before marriage. These agreements are especially important for individuals with significant assets, inherited wealth, or business interests.
Our Crawley solicitors have considerable experience drafting and reviewing prenuptial agreements that are fair, practical, and legally sound. We also provide advice on postnuptial agreements for couples who wish to put financial protections in place after marriage.
Unmarried couples
Unmarried couples often assume they have the same legal protections as married couples through ‘common law marriage’, but this is a myth. Without proper legal agreements in place, separating cohabiting partners may have no legal claim to shared assets.
Our unmarried couples solicitors can help you put protective measures in place, such as a cohabitation agreement, which outlines financial arrangements in the event of separation. If you are separating without such an agreement, we can provide advice on your legal rights and next steps.
