You may have decided to separate now, perhaps with a desire to formalise financial arrangements and agreements concerning the children before divorcing in the future.

A Separation Deed can formally record these arrangements. A Separation Agreement is like any other agreement – it forms the basis of a legally binding contract between both parties. Whilst the court could, at a later date in divorce proceedings, disagree with the terms of the agreement, it is highly unlikely that it would seek to disturb what has been agreed and most likely already been implemented beforehand.

What people say...

The team at Clarity Law represented me and I can honestly say that I do not know what I would have done without them. They helped me to stay focused on the bigger picture and I am grateful to them for helping me achieve the best possible outcome.

From the moment I met Ann I knew I was in safe hands, and the advice, support and guidance she gave me over the following 2 years was outstanding. Ann doesn’t waste your money by ‘holding your hand’, she really does get down to business and most certainly ‘knows her stuff’.

For me as a returning client to Clarity Family Law, the service provided by Ann and the team was first class.

I instructed Clarity Family Law as a result of a personal recommendation after my initial solicitors provided me with a very poor service. I have been very happy and cannot fault their service in any way! Thank you so much.

I selected Clarity Family Law because it is a focused firm which is based locally. The firm did very really well in meeting my objectives and I would recommend them to everyone. Don’t change!

Ann was a rock in my life at a very stressful period. She was fully supportive of my circumstances and very professional at all times. She has an ability to talk straight with honesty and integrity.
