Advice on family law in our Reading and Didcot offices

Family law covers a wide range of legal issues associated with the family. Paul Wild, our specialist Family law solicitor, provides specific and tailored legal advice in relation to family matters. The main areas are:

• Divorce and separation
• Resolving family disputes
• Financial matters
• Pre-nuptial agreements or pre-marital contract
• Enforcement and variation
• Children Act cases (private law)
• Contact Orders
• Residency Orders
• Prohibited Steps Orders
• Specific Issue Orders
• Leave to Remove ( to and from the UK)
• Co-habitation or living together agreements
• Civil Partnership
• Collaborative Law

Family conflict can take many different forms and can affect people in very specific ways. When this occurs it is important that you obtain considered advice specific to your personal circumstances. All parties should ideally be made aware and understand how changing circumstances may impact on them but also their wider family. They must therefore consider the implications of any decisions they are considering making in the future with a view to trying to resolve potential issues as amicably as possible.

Paul will always look at all options open to individuals to assist them in trying to resolve their specific problems, for example, considering mediation, collaborative law, round table meetings or Court applications as are appropriate to individual circumstances.

From the outset, advice is given as to the likely legal or non legal costs and how this may change dependent upon the various approaches you may choose to take. It is important to obtain advice at the earliest opportunity so that you are aware of your options and can make informed choices and decisions.
