We believe passionately in the benefits of collaborative law and mediation, particularly given the need in every situation to focus first and foremost on the needs of any children of the family. With this in mind, we will explore your options carefully with you at the outset.
Whilst we are fully committed to exploring the non-court resolution of issues first, where necessary this does not preclude us from acting firmly in your interests through the family court. We are committed, whichever route you choose to resolve matters, to helping you in a hands-on, practical manner and with great care and sensitivity to your individual circumstances.
