Separation

If you are going through a separation you will be going through a pretty tough emotional time.  When emotions are running high it is often hard to think about what you need to do and who you need to speak to, to ensure you are aware of your legal rights and responsibilities.

However, there are some things you will need to immediately address, particularly if children are involved, to try and keep things as normal as possible for them.  You should speak with a family lawyer as soon as possible to discuss how you will handle some of the following issues:
  • where your children live and who will take care of them
  • how you and your former partner will support yourselves and your children
  • who will pay outstanding bills or debts
  • who will stay in the house
  • how will the rent or mortgage be paid
  • what will happen to any joint bank, building society or credit union accounts
  • what will happen to the house, car, furniture and other property.
If you need to help with the issues associated with separation please call one of our Family Law team members today or fill in the form on your right and we will have someone call you as soon as possible.
