Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Living Apart, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Living apart covers the practical and legal consequences when couples or partners no longer live together but have not necessarily separated formally. It includes finances, property, housing, and arrangements for any children, for example how to divide assets, ongoing mortgage or tenancy issues, and practical support. A solicitor in this area helps draft or negotiate separation agreements or consent orders, advises on applications to resolve disputes, and coordinates with any relevant guardians or child services. They may assist with disclosures, negotiating maintenance, and planning for future arrangements if the relationship ends formally.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The moment a separation decision progresses to property, money, or child arrangements, there are time-sensitive steps and irreversible choices. A solicitor protects your position by guiding you through the relevant forms, deadlines, and court-backed orders under the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 and the Children Act 1989, ensures proper disclosure of finances, and maintains clear records and communications.

After a bitter break up with my ex partner and having no voice about my children's welfare and wellbeing, many people told me I had zero chance of being given a fair hearing regarding custody of my children. At first I was sceptical and didn't think I should bother, but I did seek advise and approached Owen, White and Catlin, I can honestly say that the work these people do is exceeded my expectations by miles, they were supportive, advise was made clear when I didn't understand and they were thorough throughout the whole process, The children now live with me and are thriving. A first class service !

Pernilla Finnila

Tagged solicitor Pernilla Finnila

This is the second time I have had occasion to use Pernilla on family matters. On both occasions her advice has been excellent, and whilst I truly hope I don't have to instruct her in formal proceedings I will have no hesitation in doing so if this matter does end in court again.

Lola Goodwin

Tagged solicitor Lola Goodwin

I went to Lola for help, after battling in the family courts for 8 years on and off, to get my daughter's voice heard. I was so stressed and had been self litigating for years... Lola was so understanding, and kind and experienced. Her professionalism shone through . She kept me informed every step.of the way and was able to recommend a barrister to represent me in court. It made the whole process so much easier, and I had a successful outcome for my daughter ....

Julie Munday

Tagged solicitor Julie Munday

Extremely knowledgeable, everyone at Taylor and Emmett goes above and beyond to help. Julie Munday (family law) is absolutely fantastic, her experience in family law makes her the best lawyer you could hope for to represent you. She made sure I understood the family court process, what each outcome could be, helped me to understand all the documents and made sure I had statements that covered everything that I needed to benefit my side of the case. Her advice was always straightforward and informative and also compassionate (a lot of court professionals lack this skill, but family court can be very emotional and it helps to have someone on your side who is not only knowledgeable and experienced but also understanding of the emotional impact these cases can have on parents and family). I would highly recommend Taylor and Emmett and Julie Munday.

Vanessa Gillbanks

Tagged solicitor Vanessa Gillbanks

I found Vanessa Gillbanks extremely helpful and informative, using language that was easy to understand at a time that was very stressful to me. I would readily recommend this company. The charges were advised to me before I started any proceedings which of course was preferable as I was able to budget for these. I am completely happy to go back to Richard Nelson LLP for any future needs.

Mei-Ling McNab

Tagged solicitor Mei-Ling McNab

Mei-Ling was always very clear with her explanations & always took time to make sure that she had explained everything clearly to me. My previous lawyer had constantly confused me & I felt as if she jumped from one thing to the new expecting me to understand everything about the legal processes for a divorce.
