PRACTICE AREAS

ADVICE FOR

COHABITEES

DIVORCE & CIVIL PARTNERSHIP.  FINANCIAL ISSUES ARISING FROM THIS

Charlie offers specialised assistance in divorce and civil partnership separation cases, ensuring a fair resolution and legal representation.

COHABITEE AGREEMENTS.
 

Charlie will assist you to get a fair and equitable distribution of the assets, ensuring that her clients receive what they are entitled to.

SEPARATION AGREEMENTS

There is no such thing as a “common law husband or wife” in English law. Simply living together does not give you the same rights as marriage or civil partnership.

Charlie can help you put a cohabitation agreement in place to protect your interests — setting out ownership of property, financial arrangements, and what should happen if you separate.

Charlie can also advise on the increasing problem with pensions, where unmarried partners may not automatically be entitled to benefits unless clear nominations are made.

Taking advice now can give you both clarity and peace of mind for the future.

What Charlie can offer 

Inevitably, family law is very personal.  It can involve happy, positive discussions where you assess your assets or arrange your wedding or civil partnership. Sometimes, however, family law involves dealing with difficult and challenging circumstances, such as divorce and its implications for your children or even domestic violence.  With years of experience handling family law cases from both sides of the spectrum as a family law solicitor, Charlie can provide professional advice and act in your best interests - whatever's happening.

Charlie aims to work with clients to resolve family disputes in a sensitive and family-based way.  She is a member of Resolution and follows the Resolution code of practice. Therefore, you can be confident that you will receive advice that considers the needs of the whole family, in particular the needs of the children.  Most of all, she does everything that she can to help you reach a fair and workable outcome as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.  She has extensive experience in all aspects of family law and can assist you in resolving issues either through the traditional solicitor negotiation route, mediation, arbitration or through the court.  

Charlie offers an initial 30-minute free online meeting via teams for any new client.

Testimonial:

“Thank you for your kindness, expertise and efficient approach in helping me through my divorce
process. When my relationship broke down a couple of years ago it was extremely sad. I was always
hopeful to mediate our separation but sadly over time that was not the case. Having always been a
private person it wasn’t easy for me to suddenly have to find someone for guidance and support in
something so personal. Then I had the predicament of who….so many solicitors to pick from!
Well lucky for me, I chose well!  I soon realised after that very first phone call and through this whole
process I’d been fortunate to have come across you. I’ve loved your calm approach and kind
understanding of my situation, your clear and knowledgeable advice which has always been so
reassuring. I cannot thank you enough for everything you have done and hope within time my
divorce is settled and I can fully move on. I will without doubt always recommend you.”
