Family & Matrimonial

Seeking advice about divorce, relationship breakdown and family matters can be difficult. Under normal circumstances, family and relationship matters are deeply personal and entirely private between you and those closest to you.

Sometimes however, things can go wrong and you may find yourself in a position where you’re seeking legal help, which involves speaking openly about your personal life with others, and discussing events and circumstances which may affect you emotionally and personally.

Call us on 0161 930 5151, e-mail familyteam@gorvins.com or complete our online form for advice about divorce, relationship breakdown or other family matters. You can expect to receive genuine understanding, empathy and support. We will be on hand to guide you through the proceedings and be with you every step of the way.

Gorvins’ Approach to Family Law

The family and matrimonial team here at Gorvins Solicitors can offer you legal guidance with:

• Divorce
• Dissolution of civil partnerships
• Arrangements for the children following relationship breakdown
• Financial aspects of divorce/dissolution
• Cohabitation disputes
• Pre-nuptial agreements
• Living together agreements
• Parental rights
• Domestic Violence and abuse

We encourage open and honest communication between ourselves and our clients in order to come up with a solution which best suits everyone involved. We’ve represented a wide range of clients in their family disputes during the last twelve months, including surgeons, doctors, teachers, barristers, accountants, professional footballers and business owners.

We try wherever possible to settle disputes without the need for court proceedings. Each of our family and matrimonial team members belong to an organisation called Resolution which promotes settling disputes by negotiation.

We believe that settling disputes where possible without the need for court helps to considerably reduce acrimony and uncertainty, as well as being less time consuming and costly to all parties involved.

We pride ourselves on remaining professional and sensitive to each case on an individual basis and recognise that no two disputes are the same.
