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.Â
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.Â
At Farani Taylor, our family law solicitors are here to support you and your family during this emotional, transitional period. We can become the links to wider support facilities to ensure that everyone in your family is receiving the care and guidance they may need.

We have advanced expertise pertaining to international family law, so if a relocation or child contact information is required for overseas legislation, we can support you from initial consultation to your final ‘destination’.Â
Considering arrangements for child custody can be an upsetting and highly emotive step in divorce proceedings. It is in the best interests of the children if you and your ex-partner can amicably create an agreement however, in the event that this isn’t a viable option, our family law specialists are here for you. We can act as mediators between parties, or simply provide you with advice on what steps would be most beneficial for you and your children. Our specialist team has extensive knowledge and experience with child contact cases and regardless of how problematic a situation may seem to be, we will always find a solution for you. The goal is to achieve the best outcome for you and your children and to help you begin the next chapter of your new life.

Despite the many changes society has made towards the law with cohabiting couples, there is still a long way to go to achieve the same rights as couples who are married or in a civil partnership. We firmly believe that it is therefore essential for every couple, regardless of their marital status to consider the financial implications should a relationship break down. Our team of specialists can advise you whether you are about to move in with your partner or if a relationship breakdown has already arisen.

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.Â
