Divorce, separation and finances
The breakdown of a relationship is one of the hardest things that you might have to go through in your life and it doesn’t just impact yourself and your partner, there are often others involved.
We advise our clients about what happens to their home, their savings and investments, pensions and income needs when they separate. We also advise in cases where there are disputes about where children should live and how much time they spend with each parent.

Children Disputes
Children Disputes
Unfortunately, when partners separate, it is not uncommon for them to struggle to make arrangements as to how much time the children will spend with each parent. At Woollcombe Yonge we understand that the impact of separation on children can be significant and that the reduction in time that each parent will be able to spend with the children is very painful for parents. We are committed to resolving these disputes constructively so as to minimise the emotional impact on both children and parents. Sometimes it is necessary to proceed to court in order to resolve where the children should live and how often they should see each parent. We are highly experienced in undertaking these applications.
