Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Maintenance Agreements, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

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.

I was going through divorve and having a hard time with solicitors from the other arty. Paris Smith helped cut through the unecessary noise and back my corner. I was having daily panic attacks and waiting weeks for replies from the other firm, only to have to repeat myself. The proocess still tookj far longer than I imagined but I dont feel this was because of my firm, as they dealt with my replies promptly and chased the other firm to wrap things up.

Asia Razaq-Miah

Tagged solicitor Asia Razaq-Miah

Needed a start point for financial settlement during a separation in a marriage. Only wanted advice as split is amicable, but don't want to settle for something that seems equal and find I can't get by. Asia was amazing and made me feel much more confident in those conversations with my husband. Also confident that I will have a financially more comfortable life than I thought. The idea that 50:50 is the START point was a huge weight off my mind. Being able to give a one-off payment, get this amazing advice and with no costs was just what I needed at a time of such high stress.

I instructed Callam Standen at OTB Legal for an FLR(M) unmarried partner application under Appendix FM. From the very first consultation Callam was honest, clear, and straight to the point. He told me what I needed to hear rather than what I wanted to hear, and that honesty gave me confidence throughout the process. My case had some complexity — my partner and I had not cohabited due to some reasons, and I was working to a very tight deadline. Callam understood the urgency, prepared a thorough and well-crafted application, and addressed every potential question the caseworker might have in a detailed cover letter. He also discussed the case with a senior colleague to make sure the strategy was right. The application was submitted using the super priority service and was approved the day of biometrics. I could not have asked for a better outcome. Callam was responsive, professional, and genuinely cared about getting this right. His fees were transparent and fair, and he even adjusted them when the scope of the case changed. I would recommend him and OTB Legal without hesitation to anyone in a similar position. Thank you Callam — you changed my life.

Sam is brilliant at what she does. She tells you straight, no flannel, and gets it done. Jo and Fiona are fabulous and Sam is so lucky to have them as the amount of paperwork is phenomenal! First class. Thank you. Deep pockets may be needed, but worth every penny.

Pam Dhaliwal

Tagged solicitor Pam Dhaliwal

I was put a ease at the first meeting with Ms Pam Dhaliwal in respect of my complex financial matter. She ensured me that I was in "safe hands". I was fully kept informed at all times. All the staff were polite and understanding. I would definitely recommend Pam and the firm. I was so impressed that I continued with the firm in respect of my will and POA.

Angela Killa

Tagged solicitor Angela Killa

Over the past 3 years I have had representation from Angela on a complex family matter and my experience was exceptional. From the initial consultation to resolution of the case (3 years later), Angela demonstrated professionalism, expertise and genuine commitment to achieving the best outcome for me and my family. Throughout the process Angela provided clear and concise advice, keeping me informed at every step and ensuring that I understood all of my options. What truly stood out was her empathy and understanding towards my situation. Angela not only addressed the legal aspects of the case but also took into consideration the emotional impact it had on me. The level of genuine care from Angela made a significant difference during what has been a very challenging few years for me. I will forever be grateful for Angela’s dedication and unwavering support throughout the entire process. Thanks to her expertise and guidance, we were able to achieve the outcome that exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Angela to anyone. Overall my experience with Angela was nothing short of excellent and I am truly thankful for her outstanding representation. Whilst I am relieved that this is all over, I will definitely miss her.
