Are you looking for family law & divorce solicitors in Benfleet, Essex? If so come and talk to Hook and Partners. Our expert team has an outstanding reputation for providing fair and compassionate legal advice that will protect your interests.
Nobody enters into divorce or separation proceedings lightly – especially if there are children involved. However, if you decide to divorce it pays to have high-quality and reputable legal representation.
Family law governs the way in which marriages are brought to an end in the UK and cover key issues such as the disposal of assets, child care arrangement, custody, visitation rights, maintenance and other financial provisions. Recent changes to the law make it easier to initiate a separation without assigning blame. Even so, whether you’re involved in an amicable split or have ongoing disputes with your partner having an expert solicitor on your side will protect your rights and help you achieve the best possible outcome for everyone involved.
When couples separate, children often find themselves caught in the middle. Whatever the terms on which you separate it is essential that provisions are made to protect their best interests. At Hook and Partners, we are committed to making sure all our clients have expert and compassionate support to manage all children’s arrangements.
Our team includes specialist family law solicitors in Benfleet as well as a specialist and accredited child mediator and consultant. By working with everyone involved in the process including yourself, your spouse and children, we work to help you find a fair and equitable resolution that will help you move forward as a family.

You can get in touch with one of our team and discuss your case with an expert solicitor. They will work to understand your specific situation and offer advice to help you achieve the most satisfactory outcome possible.
In cases of an acrimonious split or where there are ongoing financial or personal disputes, our team will provide clear guidance and work to protect your interests. In most cases, our aim is to resolve each case through discussion and mediation. However, if the case does go to court, we’ll provide family law and divorce solicitors in Benfleet who will do everything to protect your interests and achieve a fair outcome.
