What Does a Matrimonial Solicitor Do?

A matrimonial solicitor is a legal expert who specialises in matters related to marriage and family law. Our primary role is to provide advice and representation to individuals or couples dealing with a variety of issues, such as divorce, separation, financial settlements, and child arrangements.

In addition, matrimonial solicitors offer guidance on alternatives to divorce, such as mediation or collaborative law, aiming to resolve disputes amicably and avoid lengthy court proceedings when possible.

Ultimately, a Lloyd Platt & Co matrimonial solicitor works to protect their client’s interests, ensuring that their rights are upheld and that any legal agreements are fair and sustainable.

Expertise in Divorce Law and Family Law

Navigating the legal aspects of divorce and family law can be complicated. It involves numerous factors, including child arrangements, financial settlements, and matters of parental responsibility. As specialist family solicitors, we understand that each case is unique and requires a tailored approach.

Whether you are dealing with a divorce, a civil partnership dissolution, or a cohabitation contract, our family and divorce team is equipped with the experience and knowledge to handle your case effectively. Our team of divorce law specialists is well-versed in the intricacies of divorce proceedings and family law.

From helping you complete a divorce application to ensuring that your financial order is secure, we provide a comprehensive service that covers every aspect of divorce. Our aim is to protect your rights and ensure a smooth process, whether through collaborative law or court proceedings.

Tailored Divorce Services

Divorce is rarely straightforward, and there are many different pathways to achieve a resolution. At Lloyd Platt & Co, we offer a variety of divorce services to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re interested in alternatives to divorce, such as mediation or a collaborative divorce, or you need representation for complex divorce proceedings, we are here to guide you.

Our experienced divorce lawyers are trained in mediation and collaborative law, offering you the opportunity to resolve disputes amicably outside of court. This not only saves time and money but also helps maintain a cordial relationship, which is often beneficial when children and divorce are involved.

If a more formal legal approach is required, we are also skilled in handling contested divorces and jurisdictional issues, ensuring that all legal aspects are covered, from the division of family assets to securing your visitation rights and residence order.

Child Custody and Parental Responsibility

One of the most sensitive issues during a divorce or separation is the question of child custody. At Lloyd Platt & Co, we know how important it is to resolve matters of child arrangements swiftly and fairly.

Our family solicitors have extensive experience in negotiating child custody agreements that focus on the well-being of the child while protecting the rights of both parents. We also provide expert advice on issues of parental responsibility, ensuring that your role as a parent is upheld during the divorce process.

Whether you’re seeking to establish visitation rights or need help with a residence order, our team is dedicated to helping you maintain a meaningful relationship with your children.

Financial Settlements and Pensions

Divorce is not just an emotional process—it also involves financial decisions that can have a lasting impact on your future. At Lloyd Platt & Co, we work diligently to ensure that all financial agreements are fair and sustainable.

Whether it’s handling financial remedy proceedings, dividing family assets, or addressing the situation with pensions, we provide expert advice to secure your financial future. We understand that married couples often share complex financial arrangements, including joint bank accounts, pensions, endowments and life insurance policies.

Our solicitors are well-versed in financial settlements, ensuring that assets are distributed fairly. We also consider any long-term financial commitments, helping you achieve a financial order that safeguards your interests.

Domestic Abuse and Legal Protection

In cases where domestic abuse is a factor in the breakdown of a marriage or relationship, it is critical to seek legal protection and advice. At Lloyd Platt & Co, we are not only sensitive to these situations but also act swiftly to secure the necessary court orders, including injunctions, to protect you and your loved ones.

We also work closely with specialists in domestic abuse to ensure that our clients receive the support they need. Whether it’s arranging for alternative living arrangements or helping you navigate the legal process to obtain a divorce or separation, our family law solicitors are committed to your safety and well-being.

Expertise in Civil Partnerships and Same-Sex Marriages

At Lloyd Platt & Co, we recognise that family law extends beyond traditional marriage. Our solicitors are also experienced in handling civil partnership dissolutions and same-sex marriage breakdowns.

We provide comprehensive legal services tailored to the unique challenges that may arise in these situations. From negotiating financial settlements to dealing with child arrangements, our team is committed to providing expert family law advice for all couples.

Nuptial Agreements and Cohabitation Contracts

Planning for the future is an important part of any relationship, and legal agreements such as pre-nuptial agreements, post-nuptial agreements and cohabitation contracts can provide peace of mind. At Lloyd Platt & Co, our matrimonial solicitors are experts in drafting these agreements, ensuring that both parties’ interests are protected.

Nuptial agreements are especially useful in protecting family assets and ensuring that any future disputes are resolved amicably. Whether you’re getting married or entering into a civil partnership, our team can help you establish clear terms that safeguard your financial future.

Whether you need assistance with cohabitation contracts, nuptial agreements, or a civil partnership dissolution, we have the expertise to guide you through the process with confidence.

Jurisdictional Issues and Cross-Border Divorce

Divorce can become even more complex when international factors come into play. If you or your spouse is based in a different country, or if you own assets overseas, it’s crucial to work with a legal team that understands the jurisdictional issues involved in a cross-border divorce.

At Lloyd Platt & Co, our solicitors have extensive experience in managing international divorce cases. We can advise on matters of jurisdiction, ensure that your case is handled in the appropriate legal venue, and work to protect your interests across borders.

Is a Solicitor Needed for a Divorce?

While it is technically possible to handle a divorce without a solicitor, having a legal expert by your side can make a significant difference. Divorce involves complex legal, financial, and emotional issues, and a solicitor ensures that your rights and interests are protected throughout the process.

We can assist with navigating legal documents, understanding your entitlement to assets, negotiating financial settlements, and arranging child custody or visitation agreements. A matrimonial solicitor is especially crucial in more complex divorces where issues like property division, pensions, different cultural views or domestic abuse are involved. With our expert guidance, you can avoid potential pitfalls and ensure that the divorce process is handled efficiently and fairly, giving you peace of mind during a challenging time.

The Importance of Expert Legal Advice for all Aspects of Divorce

Going through a divorce or separation can be an overwhelming experience. Legal issues such as financial agreements, child arrangements, and the division of assets can add to the stress. At Lloyd Platt & Co, we believe that having the right legal advice can make all the difference in navigating these challenges.

Our family law solicitors are committed to providing expert advice that is tailored to your individual circumstances.
