Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Divorce in Retirement, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Divorce in retirement covers ending a long-term marriage when one or both spouses are retired or near retirement. It involves evaluating pension rights, capital and housing, and how retirement affects financial claims and living arrangements under the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 and related family law. A solicitor helps gather and present financial information, negotiates a settlement, and applies for pension sharing or earmarked pension orders where appropriate, with attention to deadlines and court procedures. The aim is a final agreement that reflects the retiree’s changed financial position and needs.

Where a solicitor protects your position

Key concerns include timely disclosure of pension rights, the need to protect ongoing income in retirement, and the potential transfer of assets or pension rights to balance fairness. A solicitor explains the legal framework, supports drafting a financial settlement, and handles court applications where negotiations fail, while ensuring the agreement is legally binding and enforceable.

Orla OConnor

Tagged solicitor Orla OConnor

I would very strongly recommend Stowe Family Law. I have used Stowe for various legal proceedings for children’s and family finance related cases and they have been excellent. Throughout litigation, I have dealt with many members of staff at Stowe and they have all been extremely helpful and competent. I instructed Orla O’Connor for the legal proceedings. Orla is incredibly knowledgable and thorough, offering sound advice and managing my case, which was particularly challenging at times, very professionally. Orla was able to achieve my desired outcome at the final hearing and conclusion of my child order application. I cannot recommend Orla (and Stowe) highly enough !

Brian Fraser

Tagged solicitor Brian Fraser

After 18 months of torture following a horrible separation and floundering around with a number of awful lawyers clearly only interested in getting paid I stumbled across Brian at Elite Law. As with most lawyers I got the one hour free intro phone call but I knew I was on the right track when the hour was well and truly over but he still called me back to finish the story and I genuinely felt that he heard me and understood what I was going through. In the following days he came back to me with a plan and reassured me that he knew what to do and this turned out to be true. Over the following months he continued to reassure me that my position was solid and explained the law and his plan for what to do. He communicated well despite probably having many other clients and the advice he gave me turned out to be exactly the right thing to do which ended with a far more positive result than I had reconciled myself with when we first spoke. I would never have thought to do what we did but it got me the right result and I am forever grateful. Brian was part therapist at the beginning and part friend at the end and it was worth every penny.

Cannot speak highly of the team at Rothera Bray Beeston, who helped me along to get my issue resolved. Special mention goes to Jack English, who showed incredible resilience, along with a large dose of patience whilst guiding me along the way, so that the correct result was obtained. Would have no hesitation in recommending this practice for whatever legal service you require. Thank you once more!

Jen Law

Tagged solicitor Jen Law

We were very fortunate to have been advised and represented by Jen during a recent case. Undoubtedly without Jen the outcome would have been less positive. We were constantly informed and updated of our situation during the whole process. You could clearly see Jen was respected greatly from the other legal professionals and this provided a great deal of confidence to us as well as a calming influence that is sometimes needed during such delicate discussions and negotiations. We ultimately received the best possible outcome with our case and cannot thank Jen enough. Jen is Tenacious but at the same time a calming influence. We always felt looked after is how i would best describe our experience. Ultimately the most professional service we could have hoped for!

Maya LalTim Ridyard

Tagged solicitors Maya Lal and Tim Ridyard

If you are looking for legal representation for yourself or possibly a son or daughter, especially if its a delicate matter, then simply, look no further, we were left in a very unfortunate position where for some unknown reason, at the last minute the legal firm we had, decided to stop representing my son, Ashtons Legal stepped in, and all i can say is they were unbelievable in every way, we were 100 percent confident that they were really fighting our sons corner, yes they were exceptionally professional but more than that, they really showed compassion and understanding for what we were going through and yes the result they achieved in court was far better than we ever expected. It is so difficult picking the right legal representation, our worry was always have we picked the right one, simple answer yes we did we chose Ashtons.
