Our Approach

Supporting you with clarity, care and practical solutions

When you instruct one of our divorce and family law solicitors, they will give you a clear and straightforward explanation of your legal position, free from jargon. You’ll also receive an outline of the likely timescales and costs, helping you make informed decisions about the path ahead.

We understand that every family is unique, with its own circumstances and complexities. That’s why we take the time to listen, understand your situation fully, and provide tailored advice designed to protect your interests—whatever challenges you may be facing.

You can rely on our experts

Our highly experienced lawyers hold a range of specialist Family Law accreditations. We are recognised on the Law Society's Panel of Family Law Specialist Lawyers and hold The Law Society Specialist Accreditation in Children Law. All our solicitors are members of Resolution - a community of family justice professionals committed to resolving issues constructively - and several are trained collaborative lawyers.

Our Family Law team has also been listed in the Legal 500, one of the most comprehensive independent guides to UK law firms. 

How Our Family Law Solicitors Can Help

Our specialist team advises on all areas of family law, including:

Divorce & Separation

If you’re considering divorce or have already made the decision to separate, we provide practical advice tailored to your circumstances. We explain your options clearly, help you understand the likely outcomes, and support you through each stage of the process.

Our work includes:

• Divorce applications
• Negotiating financial settlements
• Advising on property, pensions and long‑term financial planning
• Supporting you in reaching agreements that protect your future

Our approach is calm, constructive and focused on achieving a fair outcome for everyone involved.

Children & Parenting Arrangements

Your children’s wellbeing is always the priority. We help parents reach sensible, child‑focused arrangements that work for the whole family.

We advise on:

• Contact arrangements
• Parental responsibility
• Schooling and important decisions
• Relocation issues
• Child Alienation

We aim to minimise conflict and encourage cooperative parenting wherever possible.

Financial Matters

Sorting out finances can be one of the most complex parts of a separation. Our team has extensive experience dealing with everything from straightforward cases to high‑value and business‑related assets.

We can help with:

• Division of property, savings and investments
• Pensions and long‑term financial security
• Spousal maintenance
• Business assets and inherited wealth

We work with you to secure a fair and sustainable financial agreement.

Cohabitation and Agreements

Not all couples choose to marry, but legal protection is still important. We advise on:

• Cohabitation agreements
• Separation agreements
• Prenuptial and post nuptial agreements
• Rights for unmarried couples

These agreements provide clarity and peace of mind, helping you plan for the future with confidence.

Speak to one of our Family Law Solicitors in Milton Keynes

If you need advice about divorce, separation, cohabitation, children or financial matters, our team is ready to support you. When you reach out to us, your initial call or email will be handled directly by one of our family solicitors—not by a support team member. This allows the solicitor to gain an early understanding of your situation and ensures they are fully prepared for your fixed-fee meeting.

Book a Fixed Fee Meeting 

We offer a Fixed Fee First Meeting, which provides you with a full hour with a specialist family lawyer. We’ll begin by inviting you to outline the background, your priorities, and any concerns you may have. During the meeting, we will clearly explain your legal position and outline the options available to you. 

In a small number of cases, the issue you contact us about may not be suitable for a fixed fee meeting. If this applies to your situation, our family team will inform you during the initial consultation and guide you towards the most appropriate next steps

How much does a Fixed Fee meeting cost?

Our fixed fee for an initial 60 minute meeting costs £150 plus VAT. If you feel that a fixed fee meeting in person or by video might help you, then please get in touch with the Family team by calling 01908 304560, emailing family@neves.co.uk or complete the form below and we'll get back to you.
