Family Law
No matter how amicable the break-up of your relationship may be, many aspects of your life with your former spouse or partner will need to be considered and decisions made about how best to move forward.
Changing times
Milne Moser are experienced, qualified solicitors who can advise you on all the legal issues that you may face. Decisions will need to be made about your home and your finances. You may also have children whose needs have to be considered.
Whatever the issue, we will guide and support you until you reach a resolution that is right for you.
We recognise that every relationship is as individual as the people who form it, which is why we will take time to get to know you before helping you to move forward with the solution that best suits you.
With Milne Moser’s support and advice, you will be able to deal with the changes that you face constructively and at your own pace.
Making that first appointment
We understand that making your first appointment to see us will be a big step, especially when you may still be coming to terms with the changes that are occurring in your life. However, we only want to help and we will do this discreetly and with sensitivity.
Legal fees
Managing your finances can be difficult when your relationship has broken down and this is why we interim bill on a monthly basis. This means that you have the ability to pay, and therefore budget monthly whilst your case is ongoing.
Divorce
Where you decide to issue divorce proceedings, we charge a typical fee of £460 plus VAT. The Court will also charge a fee which you must pay in addition to our fees. This fee is currently £593, although exemptions may apply.
If you have received a divorce application from your husband or wife and you require legal assistance, we charge a typical fee of £250 plus VAT. There is no Court fee payable in this instance.
As you go through the divorce process, it will be necessary for you to agree how the family assets are to be divided. This can be done by agreement in which case an Order can be made by the Court for a ‘full and final’ settlement.
Our fees for preparing the necessary paperwork and relevant Court papers begin at £500 plus VAT and will depend upon the complexity of your personal circumstances. There will also be a Court fee payable but this can often be shared between you and your former spouse.
Separation Agreements
If you are married, but are not ready to commence divorce proceedings just yet, we can help you to prepare and execute a Separation Agreement. A typical fee for such an agreement is just £500 plus VAT.
We can also offer bespoke fee packages for other aspects of family law and you can discuss these with us at your first appointment.
Resolution
Milne Moser Solicitors are members of Resolution and, as such, are committed to the Resolution Code of Practice which promotes a non-confrontational approach to the legal issues that separating couples face. We also encourage solutions that consider the needs of the whole family and, in particular, any children.
Living together
You may be planning to live together and require a Cohabitation Agreement to ensure that all of the household issues are agreed in advance. We can assist you preparing a Cohabitation Agreement for a typical fee of £500 plus VAT.
