Services
Divorce Mediation
Our divorce mediation service facilitates constructive negotiations between separating couples regarding financial and child arrangements. Mediators help parties reach mutually acceptable agreements without court intervention, offering a cost-effective alternative to litigation. The process maintains confidentiality while addressing complex asset divisions and parenting plans, with options for shuttle mediation or child-inclusive sessions when appropriate.
Child Arrangements
Specialist child law services focus on creating child-centred solutions for post-separation parenting. We handle custody agreements, contact arrangements, school fee disputes, and international child relocation cases. Our approach prioritises children's welfare while protecting parental rights, with expertise in complex cases involving multiple jurisdictions or high-conflict situations requiring court intervention.
Prenuptial Agreements
We draft and review prenuptial and postnuptial agreements to protect assets before or during marriage. Our solicitors ensure agreements meet legal standards while addressing property division, inheritance protection, and financial provisions. The service includes independent legal advice for both parties to enhance enforceability in potential future divorce proceedings.
International Family Law
Specialist international family law services handle complex cross-border disputes involving multiple jurisdictions. We manage child abduction cases, international asset division, and enforcement of foreign orders, supported by a global network of legal partners. The team handles cases with connections to Australia, Russia, India, and multiple European countries, addressing jurisdictional challenges and international enforcement issues.
Collaborative Law
Our collaborative law process enables couples to resolve disputes without court proceedings through structured four-way meetings. Trained collaborative lawyers work with clients to reach mutually acceptable agreements on financial and child-related matters, maintaining confidentiality throughout the process while preserving relationships through non-adversarial negotiations.
