Testimonials

  • “Rachel at RJS has been nothing but helpful in helping me gain a prenup prior to my marriage. She's explained everything in great detail, been honest about my options and dome everything in a timely manner. Can't thank her enough, highly recommend.”

    Leah

  • “Rachel is absolutely brilliant. She has given me the best advice during the last 9 months dealing with the Financial Remedy in conjunction with my divorce. Not only has she had to have the patience of a saint to deal with me, she has been so professional and diligent dealing with the other side who have been a nightmare throughout the whole process.

    I would have no problem in recommending Rachel if you need a solicitor to deal with a marriage break up and/or financial settlement. She is first class and full value for the money.”

    Ian

  • “Rachel helped reduce the stress of a very difficult and complex divorce whilst keeping the costs to a minimum. Always helpful and understood the complexities of a controlling relationship.”

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Family law is the area of law that deals with legal issues arising from relationships, including divorce, separation, financial settlements, child matters and domestic abuse protection. At RJS Family Law, we guide you through these challenges with clarity, experience and empathy, helping you understand what your rights are and what your options look like.

  • Under UK law, you can apply for divorce if your marriage has irretrievably broken down and you meet the basic eligibility criteria, for example, you’ve been married for at least one year. Recent reforms mean that divorce is no longer about proving fault, but simply that the relationship cannot be saved.

  • You can apply for a divorce online yourself, but having a specialist family lawyer ensures your rights, especially in relation to finances and children, are protected and your case proceeds efficiently. We offer a free initial consultation to talk through your situation and answer your questions.

  • If parents can agree, arrangements about where children live and how they spend time with each parent can be agreed outside court. If you can’t agree, the court decides based on what’s best for the child. RJS Family Law supports families in both negotiation and court processes.

  • Yes, many family issues can be resolved through mediation, negotiation or collaborative law, which can be less stressful and more cost-effective than formal court proceedings. We’ll always explore amicable options where appropriate.
