Family Law Solicitors
Navigating family law matters is often one of life’s most challenging periods. While DLS Solicitors is based just outside of Oldham, we have a long-standing commitment to serving clients from this area, providing expert, empathetic, and effective legal guidance through complex family situations. Our team of dedicated solicitors brings decades of specialised experience to every case, from divorce and separation to child custody and beyond.
Comprehensive Family Law Services
At DLS Solicitors, we offer a wide array of family law services tailored to meet the needs of individuals and families in Oldham, ensuring that each client receives bespoke legal support.
- Divorce and Separation: Handling a divorce or separation requires sensitivity and legal acumen. Our solicitors guide clients through the entire legal process, advising on the division of assets, spousal support, and the legal paperwork necessary to formalise the end of a marriage. We strive to handle disputes amicably and efficiently, prioritising mediation over court proceedings whenever possible.
- Child Custody and Support: The welfare of children is the most crucial aspect of any family law case. We help negotiate custody arrangements that focus on the children’s best interests, balancing parental rights with familial duties. Furthermore, we handle child support agreements, ensuring they are fair and comply with legal standards.
- Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements: Many couples opt to arrange their financial affairs before or after marriage. Our legal team drafts prenuptial and postnuptial agreements that protect individual assets and clarify financial obligations, thus preventing future disputes.
- Cohabitation Rights and Disputes: For couples who choose to live together without marrying, legal protection is still essential. We provide legal advice on cohabitation agreements and represent clients in disputes over property or financial support.
- Adoption and Guardianship: Expanding your family through adoption is a beautiful journey that also involves complex legal processes. We guide clients through the adoption process, handle the necessary legal documentation, and provide support in matters of legal guardianship.
- Domestic Violence and Protection Orders: If you face situations of domestic violence, securing your safety is our priority. We offer immediate legal assistance, help in filing for protective orders, and provide the sensitive support needed during such traumatic times.
- Mediation and Collaborative Law: As staunch advocates for resolving family disputes through non-confrontational means, we provide mediation services that can help parties reach amicable solutions without resorting to litigation.
