Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Short Marriages, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Short marriages cover divorce financial matters where the union lasted only a brief period, so the assets, housing and pensions are divided with attention to fairness and the needs of any children. A solicitor in this area gathers financial information, helps model likely needs and shares, drafts and negotiates a financial settlement, and, if required, prepares or reviews a court application for a consent order or further court order to formalise the agreement.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decision points in these matters are time‑sensitive and may lock in housing, pensions or other capital. A solicitor ensures proceedings reflect the short duration, protects rights to housing and income, and, where relevant, helps secure a clean break or specific pension sharing, while ensuring a legally binding order is properly drafted and lodged for enforcement.

Tagged solicitors Emily Powell, Laura Mounsey and Isabel Lee

Laura and her team were an absolute lifeline during one of the hardest times of my life. Going through a divorce was incredibly painful and overwhelming, but their support, kindness, and guidance helped me stay strong every step of the way. I genuinely cannot thank or recommend them enough. If you’re feeling scared, uncertain, or don’t know where to begin, they will make you feel supported, listened to, and completely at ease. They took the time to explain everything clearly and helped me through the process with compassion and care.

Rachel Jane McGrath

Tagged solicitor Rachel Jane McGrath

After my initial telephone consultation with Rachel, I knew I was going to use RJS Family Law for my financial proceedings. She was the only solicitor that I felt really cared about what the client wanted and would fight for it. I instructed Rachel for my FDR in January 2025. She prepared my position statement and created the court bundle. She took my instructions throughout by asking how involved I wanted her to be in the process in order to keep costs to a minimum. I gathered all the evidence from my ex-husband and then provided it to Rachel so she could create the bundle. She advised me on my position and also listened to what I wanted to achieve and why. At the FDR, it was clear that she understood the facts of my case as she was able to defend points raised by my ex-husband. I was able to reach a positive settlement at the FDR which would not have been possible without Rachel’s help. She was very approachable and we had a lovely conversation whilst waiting to be called in. Although her hourly rate may be high, her communication is clear and concise so you’re not wasting money on unnecessarily long communication. In the end, I didn’t end up paying as much as I had anticipated. The service I received was worth every penny. I would recommend RJS Family Law to anyone needing assistance with family of child matters. They care about their clients and want the best for them.

Katrina Whyard

Tagged solicitor Katrina Whyard

Katrina was (and is) fantastic. She came highly recommended from my mortgage broker – I can see why, now – and did wonders. I had quite a tight deadline for a divorce-mandated transfer of property and remortgage, for quite a complex little right-to-manage flat in London, and she was thorough, persistent and highly communicative throughout. She pulled out all the stops and couldn’t have been more helpful and collaborative. I got a much better service than I ever expected and would recommend Katrina unreservedly!
