Family & Civil Partnership

 



No other field of law provokes greater emotional consequences than that of family law.

At Gay Lawyers, we attempt to resolve the problems arising from this highly charged area both sensitively and efficiently.

In difficult situations, instructing a solicitor may not always be your best option in view of the costs associated. Sometimes, matters between gay couples may be resolved amicably and we offer a mediation service in order to attempt to conciliate differences between same-sex partners and divide assets without recourse to litigation and court action.

The option of mediation is invariably cheaper than using a solicitor.

We will deliver clear advice and aim to offer the best solution, if possible by agreement.

Clearly one of the hardest parts of separation and civil partnership dissolution issues are the decisions that affect the lives of any children involved. Where necessary, we can help you by refering your matter to a dedicated family lawyer able to offer valuable advice relating on both UK and international legal matters.

We are always mindful of the fact that the consequences of a Civil Partnership dissolution will be changing the course of people's lives; we therefore very carefully consider the way in which we conduct our cases.

If your matter involves cross-border expertise (for example, if your partner is foreign or assets are located abroad) we can refer you to an international law firm whose lawyers specialise in cross-border matrimonial matters. 

Gay Lawyers Ltd is registered in England and Wales (Company Number 6771125) and it is not regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Where we recommend a specialist lawyer, you should always agree a retainer directly with him/her.
