Family Law Advice in Blackburn from Farleys Solicitors

Family law solicitors in Blackburn

Any kind of legal action can be complex and stressful enough alone, but things can be particularly difficult where family is concerned. It’s why family law demands especially high levels of discretion, sensitivity, and a clear understanding of each client’s needs.

At Farleys Solicitors, that’s exactly what we aim to provide. We’re here to provide specialist legal advice on all aspects of family law, including divorce, separation, child arrangement orders and financial matters. While different cases might share certain similarities, we understand that the details and specifics are always unique, so we give in-depth advice that’s tailored to your individual circumstances.

Our family law solicitors take care to deliver this advice in plain English wherever possible, avoiding unnecessary legal jargon and helping you to clearly understand your options and the best way forward. Whatever we advise, we’ll always do it with a view to achieving the best outcome for yourself, your children and your finances.

Family Dispute resolution solicitors in Blackburn

Our dispute resolution solicitors understand the apprehension that often surrounds court proceedings, so we only pursue this as a final resort. We’ll first explore several alternative options with you, including mediation, or collaborative law.

Mediation involves having an independent party sit in to aid discussion between two sides, while collaborative law involves all parties and their solicitors meeting in person to try and reach a settlement. We can help you decide on the best way forward for your individual case, resolving things in a way that minimises unnecessary cost or distress.

Expert divorce lawyers in Blackburn

When a long term relationship or marriage ends, it’s not uncommon for everything to become overwhelming. The emotional pain and distress alone can be difficult enough to process, but even more so when there are other practical issues that require attention, such as the impact a separation or divorce will have on children, or the provision of housing and finances.

Our Blackburn solicitors have a deep understanding and experience of just how traumatic and complex these situations can be. We listen, understand, and provide practical legal advice that’s focused on your specific circumstances. This includes child law advice and any answers or guidance you might need in regard to finances, to help give yourself greater peace of mind for the future.

Free family law drop in clinic

Here at Farleys, our family law team realise that it can be difficult to find the time to fit personal appointments into your daytime schedule. That’s why we run a weekly out-of-hours clinic at our Blackburn and Burnley offices, allowing you to gain access to quality legal advice without having to take time off work.

Every one of the solicitors in our family law department is a member of Resolution, an organisation of family lawyers committed to maintaining a constructive approach to the practice of family law.
