Advice on Separation

If you live together, the legal position is very different than if you had married. The common-law marriage is a myth. Your rights are limited.

Your rights in a home you share

A couple who live together may have a jointly owned property or you could live in a home owned by just one of you. If that is the case, rights can be acquired in certain limited circumstances. We can help you understand the position based on your circumstances.

Testimonials

Where do I start with the support Alison has given me over the last 4 years… She always said it how it was but with a sense of ‘not all is lost, you will get through this’ … Her advice not just on legal matters( which is superb), was that reassuring calm and patience to see the bigger picture…. That’s what stood out for me.

I would always recommend Alison in terms of family legal matters she produces monthly invoices, so you are clear what she has done for you and when.

She has helped me immensely with my legal matters and got me the best outcome based on all the facts and circumstances regarding my case.

Roxanne was approachable, understanding to my situation and offered detailed advice. I could tell that she was experienced as I felt at ease during our meeting. I was able to understand the court process and my court matter was resolved successfully. I would not hesitate in using Roxanne again, thankyou.
