Maintenance agreements in England cover private arrangements about ongoing financial support following separation or divorce, and after a relationship ends where there is a need to provide for children or a former partner. A solicitor drafts, reviews and negotiates settlement terms, records them as a formal agreement, and can apply to the court to enforce or vary those terms if required. They also advise on the impact of such agreements on benefits, tax and housing, and coordinate with any Child Maintenance Service matters where appropriate.
The solicitor handles the drafting of the precise payment amounts, review periods, and any linked financial duties, including timing and escalation provisions. They navigate potential tax implications, benefit entitlements, and enforcement options, such as consent orders or court orders, to protect the client if the other party fails to pay or complies inconsistently.

Sarah Orrell and her assistant Carol Cunningham helped me through an extremely difficult situation that has spanned 10 years. I have recommended Leonard Gray and will continue to do so.

Tagged solicitor Emily Spencer
Emily was great. She explained the will writing process and the Power of Attorney in a clear and easily understandable way. She kept us appraised of progress at each stage and arranged meetings at suitable times. She was very personable and made us feel at ease during the process. Emily outlined how things would progress and everything followed the outline. We were very happy with both her and Winston's and would be happy to use them again or recommend them to friends.

Tagged solicitor Kimberley Aucott
I can’t recommend Slater Heelis Solicitors highly enough for their support during my divorce settlement. From start to finish, the team was professional, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. They explained everything clearly, kept me informed at every stage, and made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and well-handled. Their attention to detail and practical approach meant I always felt like I was in safe hands. Special thanks to Kim and Rebecca for their guidance throughout.

Attended a meeting on the 17/01/2023 to sign paperwork for power of attorney. Everything was carried out very professionally and simple enough to understand by Amelia and Laura. Could not fault any of them, keep up the good work.

Tagged solicitor Gill Carr
Gill assisted me in a extremely complex non accidental injury case. I was assisted by Gill, her paralegal Bilal Rasool and her secretary Christine Brown. The service provided by all of them was exceptional. The situation I was going through I can honestly say was the hardest thing I have had to go through in my life and the care, guidance, compassion and support provided by Gill was the sole reason I got through it. The breadth and knowledge Gill has is incredible. She was able to guide and advise me on extremely complex matters, and do so in a manner that was not only clear and concise but was easy for me to understand. She is patient and willing to take the time to explain or go over things if I was not sure. With family matters such as this one, the emotional toll was huge and Gill was acutely aware of this. She understood that when stress was high providing timely information was key and she would always ensure she answered my many questions as soon as she could, and if she was busy Bilal or Christine would always contact me back and either help when they could or let me know when Gill could get back in touch. I often had many questions and concerns that I wanted answers to, or to try and understand and every time Gill would be there to support me and answer them, no matter how small. I felt like Gill is not just a professional I was paying for, but someone who truly cared about me and my case and wanted to do all she could to try and help me get the best outcome. She was tireless in her commitment to me and my case and even though unfortunately we did not have the best outcome I can rest knowing that Gill did everything she could to assist me. Gill truly is not only an incredible solicitor who I would recommend to all but an amazing, kind, compassionate person who I am so grateful to have had by my side.

When I was looking for a solicitor to represent me, I was looking for someone who had my back. Who would give me clear advice, and would be tenacious to get the outcome that I wanted. When I spoke to Charlotte, (Newman) I knew that’s what I was getting. What I didn’t want and certainly didn’t get was a solicitor who is a member of RESOLUTION. A solicitor who is non confrontational, someone who would be all too nice. NO I wanted a solicitor who had my back Anyway Charlotte was great, we got the result that we were after. It was regarding spousal maintenance, which the court said I should pay (20years ago) until she either re married or death, (why would she ever re marry, she had a free meal ticket for life) OUTCOME :— I no longer have to pay. Conclusion:— If you need a solicitor for family law, ring these guys, I’m sure that they will get you the best result. No solicitors are cheap, but Charlotte was good value for money Thank you, and all the best for the future.
