“Not in any way intimidating. Their positive attitude takes the stress out of situations.” (Ms Scott)
What Do We Mean By ‘Family Law In Partnership’?
Family law problems are rarely just about paperwork and legal procedure. They touch the core elements of people’s lives – their relationships, their children, their homes, and their emotional well-being. To navigate these sensitive issues effectively, you need more than just technical legal advice from your legal team; you need a strong relationship based on trust, transparency, and above all, collaboration.
In essence, that is what we mean by ‘family law in partnership’. Instead of dictating what you should do and when, and rather than confusing you with complex legal jargon, we take the time to really get to know you and your family. By working closely with you and making sure that you are involved in all key decisions, we ensure that you remain in control of the process, its outcome, and your future.
Working in partnership with your family law solicitor means that you are never left in the dark about your case. From the very start, we make sure that you know who will be handling your matter, what the next steps are, and how long things are likely to take.
It goes without saying that every family law case is different, as are the needs and priorities of those involved. However, whatever legal issue we are dealing with, our family law in partnership approach remains the same.
We start by really listening to what our clients say. Every successful partnership begins with understanding. By sitting down with our clients and getting to the heart of their situation, we can tailor not only our advice but also our approach to their needs.
Throughout the matter, we provide our clients with clear guidance. We do not present a shopping list of options and leave our clients to choose; we collaborate with them to identify the best solution for them and their family. We explain the potential advantages and risks of each route so that our client can make an informed choice with which they are entirely happy.
We devise a strategy in partnership with each client. Whether you are considering filing for divorce, working out the issues arising from your separation, or seeking more contact with your child, we will devise a strategy that reflects your personal priorities and aligns with your outlook.
Our support continues beyond the conclusion of your case. Family law matters rarely end with a single order; they can have far-reaching ramifications on all aspects of a client’s life. Our family law solicitors support our clients in planning for their future in light of the outcome of their matter. For example, they may need to revisit child arrangements as the family’s circumstances change, or change their Will to reflect their new norm.
The Advantages Of Working In Partnership
One of the greatest strengths of working with Birch & Co is that you will have direct access to a team of skilled solicitors who combine technical knowledge with genuine empathy and a desire to do their very best for you.
Our experience has shown us that a ‘family law in partnership’ approach does not just give our clients peace of mind, but it also delivers better results.
Our approach offers numerous benefits, including the following:
- Clarity. You will always know where you stand, so you can make informed decisions.
- Understanding. The time we take getting to know you enables us to align our advice with your priorities, so we can create a tailored solution that reflects your family’s reality.
- Trust. When clients feel heard and supported, they are more likely to open up to their solicitor. As a result, we can work with them to devise a strategy that achieves their desired outcome.
- Efficiency. By developing a deep understanding of your matter, we can keep unnecessary work and, in turn costs, to a minimum.
This collaborative approach extends to our colleagues as well. Behind every successful family law case at Birch & Co is a cohesive team that shares the same philosophy. We are a full-service law firm, and our solicitors throughout the practice collaborate with each other, pooling expertise across related areas such as property, wills, and financial planning to ensure that your case is considered from every relevant angle.
