Care Proceedings
Our highly experienced team will assist you in all dealings with Social Services and the Local Authority.
Child Maintenance
Representation for those cases where the CSA does not have the power to deal with child maintenance such as income above a specific level or where the absent parent lives abroad.
Civil Partnerships
We are able to offer advice and representation on the dissolution of a civil partnership and related financial/children matters.
Cohabitation
Here at Bakers we are experienced with assisting unmarried couples.
We find that it is often the case that those who have cohabited for a long time believe that they have the same rights as married couples upon separation. Unfortunately this is not the case and means separation can be a particularly uncertain time for unmarried couples.
Collaborative Law
The collaborative family law process is a new way of dealing with family disputes.
Each person appoints their own solicitor but instead of conducting negotiations between you and your partner by letter or phone you and your respective solicitors all meet together to work things out face to face.
