The breakdown of a family relationship is extremely painful and stressful for anyone. Often, people find it difficult to cope with such stress, coupled with the necessity to deal with legal aspects which must be resolved at this time. Where children are involved, disputes may arise relating to residence and contact arrangements - when emotions naturally can be heightened. At W. Davies, we offer legal expertise in all aspects of family-related matters, as well as an understanding of and sensitive approach to the stress and upset caused by a relationship breakdown, thereby enabling our clients to rebuild their lives.

Our clients are always encouraged to resolve matters in a friendly and amicable fashion. So, we use mediators, where appropriate. Court proceedings will only be instituted when settlement out of Court appears to be unlikely.
