Helping you find family law & divorce solicitors in Southend
Hook and Partners provide highly experienced and professional family law and divorce solicitors in Rayleigh and the surrounding area. With their help, you can navigate the complicated legal issues that come after a separation.
We understand that divorce can be a stressful and emotional time. With tensions running high, it can be difficult to make clear plans regarding financial settlements and family arrangements. Our team can provide personalised and transparent advice to ensure you reach an amicable and equitable arrangement for all parties concerned.
Family law represents the laws surrounding the end of a marriage and any arrangements involving children, dependants and economic matters. It can cover common arrangements surrounding custody, visitation rights and financial support as well as more complex cases involving disputes or claims of abusive behaviour.
Thanks to the recent introduction of the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act of 2020, the process of obtaining a divorce can be easier and less stressful for everyone. Under these provisions, one party can initiate proceedings without assigning blame. Couples can make joint applications and issue statements of irretrievable breakdown. Even so, this can still be a complicated and stressful process.
At Hook and Partners, our expert family law solicitors in Rayleigh can provide clear, expert and compassionate advice that can protect your interests and ensure all issues are dealt with correctly.
