PCM Solicitors offers highly competent, cost effective representation in all areas of family
and matrimonial law, acting for both husbands
and wives, for civil partners, and for both male and female partners in unmarried relationships.
We can assist with judicial separation, divorce, nullity and Civil Partnership dissolution, and the related financial, property and pension issues arising from relationship breakdown.
We deal with all "private law" children matters, including child custody, access, contact, and Inheritance Act claims.
We practice within The Law Society's Family Law Protocol and the Resolution guidelines, and firmly believe in seeking to retain the maximum assets within the family unit, including by mediation.
Where it is not possible to resolve disputes in a non-confrontational manner, we litigate firmly but fairly to ensure that the interests of our clients are fully protected.
We advise on many other family areas including:
- pre- and post-nuptial (marriage) agreements
- pre- and post-civil partnership agreements
- cohabitation
