Contentious family work in England covers disputes such as divorce proceedings, child arrangements, financial relief, and specific protection orders, pursued through the Family Court or the High Court where necessary. A solicitor drafts petitions, statements, and affidavits; applies for and resists orders such as injunctions and enforcement measures; negotiates settlements; and represents clients at hearings, including interim applications and final hearings in private law and related financial remedies. This work proceeds within the framework of the Children Act 1989 and the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973, among other statutes.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles pleadings, case strategy, disclosure of financial and personal information, cross-examination, and the preparation of evidence from experts such as financial analysts, psychologists, or medical professionals. They coordinate with local authorities, guardians ad litem, and other professionals, and navigate court timetables, case management, and potential appeals to ensure client interests are protected through carefully timed applications and negotiations.

Zena Hill

Tagged solicitor Zena Hill

Zena has been absolutely amazing, not just for the legal side, but a great support, I found my divorce hard and it made me feel anxious and stressed, Zena would always reassure me, she would always respond to me promptly and ring me back straight away if I needed her. She helped me and I am now in a better place thanks to Zena. I would highly recommend Zena to any one looking for a divorce/finance solicitor as she is the best.
