Family Law
At Polaris, we are aware that your family matters require the highest degree of confidentiality. This is why it is both integral and imperative for our team to uphold trust in your matters.
Here are some of the areas we can gladly assist you with:
- DIVORCE AND CIVIL PARTNERSHIP DISSOLUTION– we’ll help navigate
you through the legal process, while protecting your interests first and
foremost to achieve an agreed financial settlement - SEPARATION: if you’re separated but not yet legally divorced, we can help
draft a separation agreement on your behalf - COUNSELLING: Whether you need practical or professional emotional
support, we are there to assist you so you are not alone.
When it concerns children, we also can assist with the following: - ADOPTION OR SURROGACY: whether you need to negotiate and conclude
the legal process of obtaining legal parenthood status, or other legal
complications around adoption and surrogacy. - CHILD ARRANGEMENTS: we can negotiate arrangements on your behalf.
This can involve the time children spend with each parent (known as child
contact), parent responsibilities and even what child maintenance should be
paid. We can also assist other parental figures to secure contact with a child,
e.g.: Grandparents or step parents. - If your child has been abducted by a former partner, we can assist in the legal process of the return of your child.
We can help when it comes to protecting you whilst you are in a relationship.
- If you are living together, yet not married, we can draft a cohabitation agreement in order to protect you in the event your relationship breaks down.
- Whether you would like to agree beforehand how your financial assets would
be split if you were to divorce, we can always draft a prenuptial agreement - If you would like to protect your loved ones’ inheritance, we can formalise this
process for you
Whatever your concern, please contact us and we can be ready to help.
