Financial issues are usually the area which causes the most anxiety during the course of a relationship breakdown. We aim to remove the worry of unexpected legal fees. Our fixed fee charging structure is broken down into a number of stages to budget costs and assist you:

Stage 1 Compiling and exchanging financial disclosure and dealing with all matters leading to a negotiated settlement £2,500 plus VAT at 20%
Stage 2 Where a negotiated settlement is not possible following stage 1 thereafter drafting an appropriate Application to the Court for a financial remedy completing all necessary forms and dealing with all legal and procedural matters up to the first preliminary appointment at Court.

(£2,000 where we have advised  and assisted you at step 1 already)
