Keeping things clear and easy to understand

Expertise in supporting a range of clients

Our approach sets us apart
We listen to and work with you to find the best way forward. We recognize that there’s nearly always a wider picture and that a supportive but pragmatic approach is usually required to the often difficult and sensitive issues that arise in family law.

We are partner-led and have a personal interest in your case
As a boutique family law firm, our clients and lawyers have a closer working relationship which means that the solicitor handling your case will have a keen personal interest in a positive outcome.

You’ll have direct access to your family solicitor
Your solicitor will always be available to speak to you and answer your questions and concerns in a sensitive and understanding manner. When you call us, you will find an experienced family law solicitor at the end of the line.

Protecting your interests
We are vested in you and will protect your privacy and your interests. Our role in your family law case is to ensure that you achieve the best possible outcome for your case.

Seamless Service
We offer a seamless service so that the same solicitor will deal with your family finances and children’s issues. Your solicitor can advise you of the impact of any decisions you make about the children on your financial circumstances and the impact of financial decisions on the children.

Our family lawyers are members of the national family justice organisation, Resolution, which promotes a constructive and cost-effective approach to family law issues — and that’s why we also have divorce and family law solicitors who are qualified as collaborative practitioners so that we can offer you Collaborative Family Law.

This allows us to work together with other collaboratively trained divorce and family law solicitors to find solutions for your family without Court intervention.

We also have experts who are Law Society Accredited and on the Law Society’s Family Law Advanced Panel. Where family law disputes cannot be resolved through negotiation and agreement, we take a firm and proactive approach to court proceedings. It is this experience and outlook that makes us stand out from the crowd.

If you would like to find out more about how our team of specialist family and divorce lawyers based in London can support you then please get in touch.

You can book a complimentary 30 minutes consultation session with our friendly and knowledgeable Head of Family Law, Saika Alam. In the session, Saika will learn more about the challenges that you are facing and talk through how we can help.

We understand that it is so important that you get to speak to your divorce and family lawyer before you make any kind of commitment to use them. You need to get to know your divorce and family lawyer as much as we need to get to know you. That is why we do not make a charge for your initial consultation with us.
