Settlement Agreements in family law cover formal arrangements to resolve financial, property and periodical payments on divorce, civil partnership dissolution, or separation. A solicitor drafts, negotiates and finalises terms, ensuring assets, pensions, and child-related financial arrangements are put into a binding agreement endorsed by a court. The work often follows negotiations, disclosure of finances, and preparation of a consent order for court approval to make the settlement legally enforceable.

“Kim Nielson was my solicitor with Hewitts. Without her help in resolving issues with my late wifes family, I would definitely have suffered financially and mentally. There is very little you can do to resolve issues between yourself and someone that just wants to make life very difficult for yourself. This is where you need proffessional help with a very good solicitor. Kim Nielson was that solicitor who certainly gave me all the assistance I needed to resolve as many issues as possible. Unfortunately proffessional help comes at a cost, but sometimes you have to look beyond the expense and get the problem sorted before it or they escalate beyond help. I would always recommend Hewitts Solicitors who employ the best possible help you may need.”
