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 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

Our family law team will support you through the arbitration process, offering expert guidance every step of the way.

Is arbitration right for you?

In family arbitration, our solicitors can help you and your former partner agree a final, legally binding divorce without the need to go to court. Arbitration covers all the necessary elements of a divorce, including finances, property, financial support and the arrangements for children, with agreement reached through discussion and with advice from your arbitrators.

What are the advantages of arbitration?

Arbitration protects your privacy. Because the courts aren’t involved everything stays between you, your partner and your solicitors. It keeps you in control of deadlines, timings and the people you deal with. It’s also generally cheaper and faster than going through the courts.

Balanced and considered decisions

Our family team is highly experienced. We approach arbitration with care and neutrality, helping both parties feel heard while prioritising children’s welfare.
