There is a broad spectrum of issues that can be covered by family law. From the breakdown of a marriage to parental and custody disagreements. We have many years of experience in helping with every facet of family law, including setting financial agreements and prenuptial arrangements.
If you are considering a divorce, dissolving a civil partnership or have chosen to separate from a long-term partner you cohabit with, our family law solicitors can help you. We will listen to your needs during an initial consultation and provide you with a solicitor with the most suitable expertise to support and guide your circumstances.
We understand that matters requiring family law intervention can be emotional and frustrating, particularly when children are involved. We can help resolve the situation to help you achieve the results you want. We strongly advocate a collaborative approach wherever possible, avoiding unnecessary court costs, to get an outcome that is acceptable to all parties. However, should your case need to go to court, our Senior Family Lawyers with more than three decades of experience are available to help you in securing a successful result.
We have worked with clients nationally and internationally, with a variety of needs and circumstances and you will have this collective experience helping you through this delicate process.
Family law is a complex area and our family law solicitors can assist you through this sensitive time.
Our team of family law solicitors is dedicated to minimising the conflict and stress involved with matters such as divorce, child contact arrangements and family disputes. Whether you are planning ahead to avoid potential future conflict with cohabitation or marriage or seeking help with divorce or child custody arrangements, we can help.
Our experienced solicitors will provide you options for your circumstances and support you in reaching the best outcome for you, regardless of your situation.
Not every family dispute needs to end up in court and more often than not, a resolution can be made quite amicably by enlisting help from other channels to encourage dialogue between ex-partners.
At Farani Taylor, we actively encourage clients to attempt mediation or a collaborative law approach before residing with a divorce hearing, particularly with matters of child contact and financial distribution. Waiting for hearings can be distressing, time-consuming, and costly, so we always recommend that family disputes be managed in a non-confrontational manner where possible.
For more information on alternative resolution methods, contact our team who will provide you with all options available to you and your circumstances.

Financial ties are perhaps one of the most stressful to unpick and settle within divorce proceedings. Trying to handle and resolve years of mutual finances and financial decisions within a short time can be frustrating and exhausting.
Financial settlements or divorce proceedings encompass everything from pensions to the family home, taking assets owned prior to the union of marriage into consideration too; so obtaining professional legal advice is useful if you’re looking to protect your assets and those of your dependents once a divorce is finalised.
Our team of family law solicitors are experienced with dealing with complicated financial matters, including pensions, estates, and property. We have worked with high net worth individuals and with clients who have assets overseas, keeping their best interests at the centre of everything we do.

Domestic Violence is defined as any incidents of controlling, coercive or threatening behaviour between people over the age of 16, who are or have been intimate partners or family members, regardless of gender or sexuality.
If you are a victim of domestic violence, we are able to help.
A non-molestation order is a type of injunction which can protect you and any relevant child from violence or harassment. You can obtain a non-molestation order against someone who has been physically violent or against someone who is harassing, intimidating or pestering you. You can apply for a non-molestation order even if you still want to (or have to) live with your abuser.
When deciding whether to grant a non-molestation order the court will consider all of your circumstances, including the need to secure the health, safety and well-being of you and any children. You need to show the court how your health, safety or well-being or that of your children would be at risk if you are not granted the order.
If you own the home or the tenancy to the home in your sole name, you are not married to your abuser and your abuser has no legal entitlement to your home then the non-molestation order can also stop your abuser from coming to the home. Otherwise, if you want to stop the abuser from coming to your home then you need to apply for an occupation order.
Our children are our most valued achievements. Considering child arrangements or custody disputes can be a worrying process to go through. At Farani Taylor, our aim is to support and guide you through the process. Helping to ease the burden of stress and worry by keeping you informed, providing quality legal advice and working to support you to achieve the best outcome possible for each personal situation.
Any parent or guardian will be the first to say their children are their most precious ‘assets’. The welfare of our children is of paramount importance and in court proceedings the necessity for welfare considerations are no different.
Complicated divorce proceedings take their toll on everyone involved, particularly our children. Most courts tend to be more obliging to situations where a mutual resolution can and has been made to protect their well-being. Therefore, we would advise that court proceedings are seen as a very last resort should an amicable resolution be impossible.
