If you consider that completing our online Court application form is too impersonal, and you would prefer to meet one of our advisers face-to-face to discuss the issues, please request an appointment.
An appointment with one of our consultants will unravel the issues, provide you with information and advice about the law and the Courts, and of the options open to you.
In the most extreme cases of suspected abuse of a child or children, we can refer you to a forensic science service specialising in investigating that type of matter for you or the Court.
In the most extreme cases of suspected abuse of a child or children, we can refer you to a forensic science service specialising in investigating that type of matter for you or the Court.
Where no amount of discussion or mediation has helped resolve contact matters or who the children will live with, then the Court is there to offer impartial, sensible processes for helping to iron out difficulties.
Our legally trained advisers can assist you in completing the court application forms to start that ball rolling. The Court process may involve 1-3 court hearings, or more, if one of the parents is unreasonable and uncooperative. Whilst we do not offer legal aid, our hourly fees and all-inclusive discounted packages usually provide a saving of up to 50% of what a high street Solicitor could charge you for the same services.
So, please get in touch now if you need our help
How can it possibly be fair to the public for the Courts to create a rule that divorcing couples or parents in dispute must use overpriced 'mediators' to help settle disputes?
We never recommend 'mediators', but according to some of our clients, some 'mediators' are charging them over £200 per hour per person, and encouraging unnecessary appointments. That is a strong indication that the 'mediator' is probably a practicing or ex Solicitor or Barrister, using the court-approved mediation qualification to supplement their income. Their declining incomes are, of course, mainly caused by the withdrawal of legal aid or general lack of affordability in their own right.
Mediation is not supposed to be expensive or an endless expense. Not all divorcing individuals or parents are obliged to attend mediation anyway, in spite of the new rule. But if you opt to do so, shop around carefully, and be very cautious about who you select.
It is easy enough to find mediators who charge far less than £100 per hour if you really think that one is necessary. And even then, one to two sessions should be sufficient.
You may be unhappy with the final order and consider that the judge got it really wrong or that it is unjust. Depending on the type of case, type of order and the facts, you have the right of appeal, to set aside, or to vary the order.We offer a clear explanation of your rights and options and simplify the whole application process for you, so that you can get on with life and not get muddled up with court forms and procedures.
