Our family department carry out excellent legal practice for a multitude of cases, such as domestic violence injunctions, postnuptial agreements, cohabitation agreements and relationship breakdowns.

Along with helping our clients with the legal aspects of divorce, we always take an empathic stance and urge them to seek out to our network of family support specialists if necessary. This includes parental support groups, coaches, and therapists.

What our clients say
Thank you to Hannah and Nastassia, who were invaluable in getting me through a difficult divorce. I was taken through the process in detail, my questions were answered and every detail was taken into consideration. They made the process as speedy as possible and along with succinct and clear communication, were thorough, fair, transparent and precise. Very much appreciated was the care taken emotionally while remaining appropriately business-like which made an unpleasant situation as painless as possible. Many, many thanks for your excellent work on my behalf.
Congratulations to Helen Miller who maintains Band 3 ranking. Helen Miller is the managing partner at Stowe Family Law for Altrincham, Liverpool and Crewe. She assists clients with financial remedy cases and private law children matters, including abduction cases.
After speaking with a few Solicitors over the years, who did not inspire me with any confidence, I approached Stowe Family Law and was immediately impressed with the team.
I worked with Nicole Turner who guided me through the situation helping me to consider all possible outcomes, costs, and timings in pragmatic manner.
Working with Nicole we came to the best possible outcome for all parties with the minimum amount of stress to all involved.
Excellent service provided through two separate matters spanning nearly two years. During this time I had three different solicitors, but the handover process was smooth and each solicitor was professional, responsive and understanding of my situation and needs.
Helen is very professional, diligent and thorough. She expresses great client care skills & empathy in such difficult times. She showed expert knowledge, strength of will and determination throughout my divorce which resulted in a very satisfactory outcome. For that I am most grateful. I would have no hesitation in recommending Helen in any divorce proceedings with the aid of her support team too.
I will just say that I have been more than happy with the service you have provided. I felt that you totally understood my situation and that I could easily talk to you about things, for that, I thank you very much. I would not hesitate to use your company again...Once again thank you, from a very happy client.
May I thank Nastassia for such excellent service and support in my recent divorce which led to a successful outcome. Nastasia’s pleasant and caring nature was always appreciated at such an emotional time and kept me focused on the main issues. Her detailed knowledge, prompt attention to detail and professionalism were absolutely first rate. Together with our Barrister, Charles Eastwood, what an impressive team. Thank you. I can thoroughly recommend Nastassia.

Achieving the best outcome for you
Family matters such as child custody, separation and child maintenance can be very serious and the approach and decision you take may impact your life for years to come. With that in mind, taking the first step and asking for legal assistance can often be the hardest part of your journey.
The first time you meet your dedicated divorce lawyer, the focus will be on understanding you and your situation including: family structure, separation circumstances, finances and desired outcomes. You will then be advised on the legal processes, routes and options available to help you achieve the outcome that’s best for you and your family.
Apart from giving you direction, it’s our commitment to you that you’ll feel informed and understand all of the options available to you. If at any point during the process you have questions, the team are on-hand to assist.
Your first appointment with Stowe Family Law also presents an opportunity for you to decide if you want to entrust your case to us and the divorce solicitor giving you that initial advice.
-
Starting the divorce process
The person initiating the divorce submits a divorce application to the court and is thereafter known as the Applicant. If your ex-partner has already done that, then you will be referred to as the Respondent. The divorce process requires different actions of Applicants and Respondents at different times, and there are strategic implications for both, especially if one of you lives overseas.
-
How long your divorce is likely to take
In England & Wales, for straightforward divorce cases, the process can take between 6 – 8 months. On average, the whole process takes approximately one year. Longer than 12 months is common for cases where there are drawn out disagreements on child and financial matters. It is impossible to predict exactly how long a divorce will take, though a good a divorce lawyer will help give you an educated estimate.
-
How much your divorce is likely to cost
The cost of a divorce includes the court fee (currently £593) and the costs of the solicitors who assist the parties with the divorce process if they are instructed.
The person applying for the divorce (the applicant) will be responsible for covering the court fee. If the application is a joint one, applicant 1 will pay the court fee.
It is important to note that costs relating to the divorce are different from those incurred in negotiating a financial settlement and/or child arrangements.
-
Who gets the children in a divorce
Child arrangements depend largely on what the family decides, the suitability of each parent, the child’s wishes and where applicable, the ruling of a family court Judge. Resulting arrangements can include sole custody, where one parent is the sole caretaker of the child, joint custody and third-party custody where a third party such as a grandparent becomes responsible for the child’s welfare.
-
Your entitlement to the family home
As a starting point in a divorce, assets are split 50:50. As the family home is often the largest asset in the matrimonial pot, then it is common for it to be split between the parties. If a family has other assets, then the house could be given to one party and the other assets to the other. Children are another factor that affects financial arrangements during a divorce. To answer this question accurately, a comprehensive understanding will be required of your family finances.
