I would like to welcome you to the Family Law Clinic. With over 100 legal consultants available across England & Wales, we can help you if you do not qualify for public funding (legal aid) and prefer not to use a traditional high street Solicitor. In most cases we can charge half the cost of Solicitors. Using us is easy.
Free! To thank you for visiting our website we would like to offer you a free email consultation. Send us your question here forfreenow. (Introduction by Nicola Matheson-Durrant, Director)
We offer dissatisfied clients of Legal Aid & non
Legal Aid Solicitors & Barristers a no-risk case progress Check List to
monitor their effectiveness. We advise you what standard of service you are entitled to receive and where your Solicitor is not meeting the required standard, then what to do about it.
If you are a UK expat with family law, money or property issues that need resolving in the UK, or if you are a non-UK expat and have a dispute with a UK resident, we will help you, so please contact the Family Law Clinic now
Most of our advisers work from their own homes, enabling them to keep their overheads down and passing on that saving to our clients. Our advisers are client-centred and endeavour to make the most positive impact as possible on their clients' lives. You can visit an adviser in their own home-office, or request an adviser to travel to you, or you can elect to phone an adviser or have an email consultation.
We are fully aware of the harm caused by lengthy and
acrimonious litigation. All advisers have legal qualifications and are trained to explain divorce law and many other family law matters, and the legal processes and procedures to you. We help complete all of the Court forms for you, or show you how to do so.
Whilst we operate as lay legal advisers, all of our consultants have a variety of legal qualifications, training and experience. Most have obtained Law degrees. Some consultants are non-practising Solicitors and non-practising Barristers. Some have Ilex qualifications. Each of our consultants have been been employed or self-employed for approximately 15 years, on average.
This year we are running ten one-day courses, and one 5-day course for those who would like to know about the various aspects of family law, and also how to start up (Business Start-Up package) and run their own family law company, based on the proven, successful Family Law Clinic Ltd model.

* The word "most'"or "all' excludes 'legal aid' practising Solicitors. 'Legal aid' Solicitors are compelled to charge a lower hourly rate by the Legal Services Commission. We are not aware of any enrolled non-legal aid Family Law Solicitor who voluntarily charges the same as or less than Divorce Zone Family Law Clinic. We do not hold ourselves out as family law experts. Achieving the ideal result you may wish for in family law matters is not an exact science, and we do not and cannot guarantee the ideal result for clients; this is because the outcome of negotiations between parties and the decisions and directions of district judges, circuit judges and higher courts varies according to each individual case, statute, case law, each judges' discretion, individual circumstances and various external factors. We draw on our experiences and the most up-to-date resources we have, and the training we receive, and we do our best for each client in our role as legal support workers.
