Our family law services in Cambridge
Divorce, separation and civil partnership dissolution
Although the formal divorce process has become more straightforward, the wider issues surrounding separation remain complex. Financial arrangements, property division and decisions about children require careful consideration and professional advice.
Our divorce solicitors in Cambridge guide you through each stage, explaining your rights and responsibilities in plain English and outlining the steps involved. We help identify potential issues early and support you in making decisions that protect your long-term interests.
We also advise on civil partnership dissolution and separation agreements, ensuring our advice is tailored to your individual circumstances.
Where possible, we aim to resolve matters without court proceedings. If litigation becomes necessary, our Cambridge divorce solicitors provide clear and focused representation throughout.
We regularly act in cases involving significant assets, business ownership and international considerations, ensuring complex matters are handled thoroughly.
Financial settlements
Agreeing how finances should be divided is often one of the most important aspects of separation. Our Cambridge financial settlement solicitors provide practical, solution-focused advice aimed at achieving outcomes that are fair and sustainable.
We advise on pension sharing, property portfolios, business interests, investments and inherited wealth, as well as more straightforward financial arrangements. Our approach balances immediate needs with long-term financial planning.
When agreement is reached, we can formalise the arrangement through a consent order, ensuring it is legally binding and enforceable.
If negotiations do not progress, we can advise on arbitration or represent you through court proceedings. Throughout, we focus on resolving matters efficiently and pragmatically.
We provide clear information about costs before any work begins, with fixed-fee options available for defined stages where appropriate.
Children
Arrangements for children following separation must always prioritise their welfare and stability. While many parents are able to reach agreement between themselves, legal advice can help ensure those arrangements are properly structured.
Where agreement cannot be reached, child arrangements orders may be required. This sets out where a child lives and how their time is shared between parents.
Our child law solicitors in Cambridge provide calm, supportive guidance through negotiation, mediation or court proceedings. We encourage practical solutions that focus on the needs of the child and support ongoing parental cooperation.
Prenuptial agreements
Couples are increasingly choosing to clarify financial arrangements before marriage, particularly where one or both parties bring property, savings or business interests into the relationship.
Our prenuptial agreement solicitors in Cambridge draft and review agreements that are transparent, carefully structured and tailored to your circumstances. We also advise on postnuptial agreements and arrangements for civil partners.
Properly prepared agreements can help reduce uncertainty and avoid disputes in the future.
Unmarried couples
There is often confusion around the legal rights of unmarried couples. Cohabiting partners do not have the same protections as married spouses, which can lead to uncertainty if a relationship ends.
A cohabitation agreement can provide clarity from the outset. If separation has already occurred without one in place, early advice is essential to understand your position and available options.
Our Cambridge unmarried couples solicitors assist with drafting cohabitation agreements and advising unmarried couples on resolving financial and property matters following separation.
