Family/Matrimonial

About

Provided by Crane & Staples

The Family team at Crane & Staples act for private individuals in the full spectrum of family matters, including:

• Divorces involving complex financial matters, distribution of pensions and non-disclosure of assets
• Child arrangements cases
• Pre and post nuptial agreements
• Cohabitation agreements
• Unmarried couples finance
• Civil partnership dissolution; and
• International child abduction and child relocation (domestic and international)

The firm values a team approach to provide the best advice to clients, for example, consulting with the property team for information on high-value matrimonial properties.

Where possible, the solicitors undertake their own advocacy, to provide continuity of representation. High-level cases often involve the instruction of Silk, renowned medical experts, pension experts and forensic accountants.

The team are enthusiastic supporters and referrers of cases to mediation and other ADR, including arbitration. They are committed to helping parties reach agreement without the need for contested hearings, where possible, as members of Resolution.
