Our aim is to give you the advice which will allow you to make the best possible decisions about your family and the future.
Our approach is to seek agreement wherever that is possible, using court proceedings only as a last resort and never for their own sake. Where it is necessary to litigate, we will represent you with care and vigour.
We will give you sensible and sensitive advice; where we feel that you would be best served by an expert from another discipline, as well as or instead of a lawyer, we can help you identify that person.
We are committed, discreet and professional. |

Pre-Registration Agreements |
|
|
Before entering into a civil partnership you and your partner may want to consider preparing a pre-registration agreement. In the same way as a pre-nuptial agreement, a pre-registration agreement can set out how you would wish property and assets to be divided if you should separate or dissolve your civil partnership in the future.
The status of pre-registration agreements and pre-nuptial agreements is not clear-cut in this country. However, there have been recent cases where courts have upheld some or all of the terms in a pre-nuptial agreement. Although there have only been a few court cases dealing with these types of agreements, our experience suggests that they are helpful in providing evidence of what the parties had intended at the time of their partnership. |
