What Does A Family Law Paralegal Do?

In many law firms, a family law paralegal plays an important role in supporting partners and solicitors. Paralegals assist with preparing documents, managing case files, drafting letters, and liaising with clients.

At Birch and Co, we are mindful of the valuable contribution paralegals can make to a team. That said, we offer a partner-led service that ensures that our clients benefit from advice and support from a leading family lawyer with decades of experience navigating complex and sensitive situations. While a family paralegal can provide vital administrative and practical support, there is no substitute for qualified, experienced legal advice from a solicitor when major family decisions are at stake. Each and every one of our clients has direct access to a solicitor who understands their situation, whenever they need it.

Common Areas Of Family Law We Advise On

Whether you are dealing with the end of a relationship, protecting your relationship with your children, or negotiating financial arrangements, the family law team at Birch and Co is here to offer comprehensive guidance across the full range of family law matters. Just some of our areas of expertise include the following:

• Divorce And Separation

We will support you through every stage of the divorce or civil partnership dissolution process. From filing the initial petition to obtaining the final order, you can rely on our team to be by your side offering the advice and guidance you need.

• Financial Arrangements

Financial arrangements are often among the hardest fought in the context of a divorce or separation. We will ensure that you understand your legal position and work tirelessly to ensure that you receive everything you are entitled to.

• Child Arrangement And Parental Disputes

Changes to when and how you spend time with your children can be one of the hardest consequences of a divorce or separation. At Birch and Co, your children’s welfare is our primary concern, and we will work closely with you and other interested parties to secure an outcome that is in the child’s best interests and fair to everyone involved.

• Prenuptial And Postnuptial Agreements

Once the preserve of the rich and famous, more and more ‘normal’ couples are turning to prenuptial and postnuptial agreements as a means of securing their future, and the future of their children, should their relationship break down.

A well-drafted agreement gives all parties peace of mind that their financial interests are protected, and significantly reduces the risk of protracted disputes in the event of a separation.
