Led by Partner Helen Miller, our team of skilled and compassionate family lawyers is committed to providing clients in Warrington with the best possible legal advice and representation.
Clients across Cheshire can trust in Stowe to provide assurance and peace of mind, whether they are looking to reach agreements over custody of children, to secure a fair divorce financial settlement, or to obtain legal orders that limit contact with an abusive partner.
Formalising child custody arrangements
The team in Warrington are experienced at supporting separated parents across Cheshire who are unable to agree on custody arrangements for their children.
In one such case, our family solicitors represented the father of two children who had previously made child custody arrangements via direct negotiation with the mother. However this informal agreement was no longer being honoured.
The team advised that our client formalise plans for child custody by applying to the family court to obtain a child arrangement order that fully meets the best interests of the children.
Using their years of experience in child law, the team developed a child custody arrangement that was presented in court. After legal proceedings, the court issued a child arrangements order that reflected the agreed-upon child custody agreements.
The family has benefited from having a formal arrangement in place, providing routine and reduced conflict between parents.
Support for survivors of domestic abuse
In 2020/21 domestic abuse crimes made up 18 per cent of all crimes reported to Cheshire Police with a 4.5 per cent increase in incidents on the previous year.
As family lawyers in Warrington, we support abuse survivors in Cheshire to separate safely from their perpetrators in cases of physical, emotional, sexual, economic and tech abuse.
As well as helping clients to understand their legal rights, our Warrington family law team can secure legal orders such as non-molestation orders that prohibit contact with abusers and occupation orders that enable survivors to remain safely in the home.
Once protective orders are in place, our family solicitors can work with clients to complete divorce proceedings and provide specialist support so clients are able to safely separate from their abusive spouse.
Different ways to deal with divorce settlements
The team in Warrington support families across Cheshire to reach amicable and fair divorce settlements while navigating the legal complexities.
Our family lawyers identify the best possible approach based on the unique circumstances of the client to determine whether direct negotiations between couples, solicitors negotiations, mediation, collaborative law, arbitration, or the family court will help them to achieve the best possible divorce outcome.
To secure a fair divorce settlement, our family solicitors consider matrimonial assets including but not limited to savings and investments, property, pensions, and businesses as well as debts and loans.
Once all assets have been disclosed and considered, our family law team help clients to legally record the agreement and secure a clean break order to prevent an unexpected financial claim at a later date.
