We're proactive

We don’t just look after you, we look out for you.  That means we bring you insights, advice and keep you up to date on all kinds of legal matters so you can keep ahead.

We’re expert-led

We match a member of the team with the right expertise to every client, who will invest time getting to know you, who will look after your interests and ensure you have access to the whole firm when you need it.

We talk your language

The legal and financial matters might be complex, but we aim to keep things straightforward and explain everything in terms that are relevant to you.

Overview

Avoid court with our collaborative divorce legal experts

A more constructive way forward

Collaborative divorce allows couples to work through separation without going to court. It offers a structured but flexible approach, giving you greater control over decisions that affect your future, while reducing stress, time and cost.

Focusing on communication and respect

Our collaboratively trained solicitors support open, face-to-face discussions in a safe and supported environment. We act in your interests while helping both parties work towards solutions they can live with, now and in the future.

Keeping children and fairness in focus

Where children are involved, their needs remain central throughout the process. We help ensure parenting arrangements and financial outcomes are considered carefully, with an emphasis on long-term stability and fairness.

Clarity around costs

Collaborative divorce is offered on a fixed-fee basis, giving you reassurance and transparency from the outset, so you can focus on reaching agreement rather than worrying about escalating costs.

Tees have a very client focused, bespoke approach which is of a very high standard. They are consistently pushing for their clients and achieve good outcomes for them.
