The breakdown of a relationship can be one of the most challenging and emotionally charged times in anyone’s life. At MWG Solicitors, we understand the complexities involved and are here to guide you every step of the way. From divorce and separation to financial settlements and child arrangement orders, our expert family law team, led by specialist Denise Pinder, is dedicated to providing clear advice and support tailored to your unique circumstances.
Divorce and Separation: Understanding the Process
When a marriage comes to an end, the first step is often seeking a divorce. The process can feel overwhelming, but understanding the basics can help. Divorce in England and Wales requires the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage, which can now be pursued under the no-fault divorce law introduced in 2022. This means couples no longer need to assign blame or provide specific reasons for their separation.
If you’re not married but in a long-term relationship, separation can still present similar challenges, particularly when it comes to dividing shared assets or making arrangements for children. At MWG Solicitors, Denise Pinder and our expert team will work with you to ensure your rights and interests are protected, providing practical solutions during a difficult time.
Financial Settlements: Securing a Fair Outcome
One of the most contentious aspects of a relationship breakdown is often the division of finances. From property and savings to pensions and debts, it’s crucial to reach an agreement that is fair and reflects both parties’ needs. This is where legal advice becomes invaluable.
MWG Solicitors will guide you through the financial settlement process, ensuring that all assets are accounted for and divided equitably. We can also assist with spousal maintenance claims where one party may require financial support following the separation. Whether through negotiation, mediation, or, if necessary, court proceedings, our goal is to achieve a resolution that provides financial stability and peace of mind for the future.
Child Arrangement Orders: Prioritizing Your Children’s Wellbeing
For couples with children, their welfare often takes center stage during a separation. Deciding where children will live, how much time they will spend with each parent, and how important decisions about their lives will be made are critical discussions. If these issues cannot be agreed upon amicably, a Child Arrangement Order may be necessary.
At MWG Solicitors, we always put the best interests of your children first. Denise Pinder and our family law team will work with you to develop a fair and practical arrangement that considers their needs and ensures they maintain a positive relationship with both parents. If court involvement becomes necessary, we’ll represent you with sensitivity and professionalism, aiming for the best possible outcome for your family.
