At Laceys we promote am empathic and constructive approach to family matters, aiming to minimise hostility and stress and consider the needs of the whole family, particularly any children.

We offer a comprehensive range of different methods to resolve matters, from settlement out of court by discussion in mediation to legal negotiation and representation in court.

Whether you are seeking to end a relationship, agree child arrangements, divide finances and property, draft relationship agreements or settle maintenance, we will guide you through the best procedure to deal with your situation.

If you are beginning the process of divorce and / or financial separation, we have put together a guide of what you should look for when choosing a family solicitor to represent you. Please click here to download.

Our family lawyers are members of the specialist Law Society “Family Law” and “Children Law” panels. These accreditations recognise our expertise and understanding to deal with sensitive and difficult issues.  Our mediators also have expert qualification allowing them to conduct child inclusive mediation which allows the voice of the child to be heard by their parents if the child in question is happy and comfortable to engage in this way.
