    Separation matters cover how couples or civil partners end a relationship and settle finances and children after separation, including divorce petitions, financial settlements, and parenting arrangements. A solicitor in this area helps clients draft and negotiate agreements, prepare court documents such as divorce petitions and consent orders, gather financial information, and advise on mediation or dispute resolution. The work may shape future housing, child contact, and financial arrangements, so timely, accurate preparation and communication are essential.

    “I had my first appointment with Zoe two days'ago.At the end of the meeting I felt that I had a clear picture of all options available to me. Extremely professional, I also feel stronger and able to deal with what the future holds. It's as though a weight has been lifted. Thank you Zoe, It's taken me 30 years to eventually reach this point. I wish I'd had the courage years ago. ”

    “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.”

    “Rebecca made a difficult situation easier through her fair, honest and friendly approach. I felt I had a strong and supportive advisor in my corner as my wife and I worked through an amicable divorce settlement. I was tested on a few occasions and Rebecca's wisdom and firm advice (at times) held me to account so I, as did my wife receive a fair split based on our different situations. Rebecca was always quick to respond and went above and beyond with follow-up points when finalising my case..”
