Gemma Davison, a Key Lawyer to Legal 500 and one of our trusted financial divorce lawyers, guides couples through the process of separating their finances.

As family law solicitors in Swindon, we know that this time is extremely difficult, but our child law solicitors will be here to support. Our child law experts work with clients in Wanborough and Grange Park who need advice on parenting plans, international relocation cases, and grandparents’ rights. We ensure the wellbeing of your children is the focal point of all decision-making, prioritising sensitivity and a constructive approach to keep things as amicable as possible for your family.

Liza Gatrell has over 10 years of experience and is a Legal 500 Recommended Lawyer, advising clients across Wiltshire on surrogacy law as well as further fertility law cases, like adoption and parental orders. We will ensure any legal jargon you’re unsure about is explained in terms you understand, so you feel confident in the decisions you’re making regarding your future family. Always providing expert advice and emotional support throughout your legal proceedings.

Cohabitation agreements
Our cohabitation solicitors can draft a living together agreement for unmarried couples to ensure they have some legal protection, as common law marriage isn’t recognised in the UK. We work with clients in Broad Blunsdon and Cricklade to ensure your contract is tailored to your unique circumstances, covering property, pets, and finances with legal certainty. This way, if your relationship breaks down, you’ll have peace of mind that your personal assets are contractually protected.

Amy Langford, a Legal 500 Recommended Lawyer, is one of our domestic abuse solicitors who provides unparalleled care and support for survivors during this time.

Sep 2019
I would highly recommend Louise Chipchase based at the Cheltenham office, who I have known for many years. She is extremely skilled in Family and Finance Law, and always offers robust and realistic representation. You will not be disappointed with her representation. She is very diligent, understanding, hard working and always strives to achieve the best outcome where possible for all her clients. She keeps herself fully abreast of all the changes in her field of expertise and has no hesitation in “going the extra mile” for her clients. She is simply a pleasure to work with.
