Our divorce and Family Law services

Divorce and separation

Full legal support to start your divorce: issuing or responding to divorce papers, guidance on timelines, costs and procedural steps.

Financial settlements

Expert advice on dividing assets, including homes, pensions, businesses, and investments, for fair financial outcomes.

Child custody and maintenance

Tailored support for child arrangements and maintenance, prioritising your children’s welfare every step of the way.

Divorce mediation and collaborative law

Proven methods to reduce conflict and reach amicable agreements, keeping you in control of your decisions.

International divorce and farming divorce

Specialist experience with cross-border divorces and disputes involving family farms or agricultural business interests.

Amicable divorce strategy

We focus on keeping things respectful. Our approach helps minimise conflict by avoiding blame, prioritising outcomes around children, assets and pensions, and using mediation where suitable. If finances are a concern, we can arrange legal fee payments via the partner controlling family funds.

How much will a divorce cost?

Fees vary by complexity, but initial consultations are available without obligation.

  • If combined assets exceed £750,000 or household income is over £100,000, we encourage you to contact us for a tailored quote.
  • Mediation, arbitration or collaborative law options may offer lower-cost, quicker resolutions.

Starting the divorce process

A solicitor from Tees can help with:

  • Completing divorce documents or responding to them
  • Arranging fair financial settlements
  • Establishing child maintenance and custody agreements
  • Asset division, including property and pensions

 

We’re experienced in negotiation and court representation, ensuring progress even if mediation or collaboration doesn’t resolve matters. Court isn’t always adversarial; it can impose a fair timeline and encourage early settlement.

Amendments to your Will after divorce

Underestimating the effect of divorce on your Will is common. Divorce may not automatically invalidate it, so reviewing and updating your Will is essential. Our team can advise on necessary changes to ensure your wishes are upheld.

Although based in Cambridgeshire, Essex and Hertfordshire, we assist clients across England and Wales via remote consultations, phone and email.
