Why Choose Belderbos
How do you choose the right advisor?
When it comes to delicate family matters, it’s vital you choose the right solicitor to guide you to the best solution for you and where relevant, your children. You want to be listened to, you need to be understood, and you want the best advice and efficient service.
So how do you choose? There are a wide range of specialist family law firms and some very experienced and talented lawyers in general solicitors’ practices. So there’s lots of choice. Here’s our six-step guide on how to find the best specialist family lawyer for you.
Just as you wouldn’t see a GP for a heart condition, you need a solicitor who deals with family law cases daily and understands the complexities involved.
Your solicitor should listen carefully, communicate clearly, and provide firm but fair guidance when needed.
Solicitors who are members of Resolution are committed to resolving disputes in a constructive, non-confrontational way, helping to keep stress and legal costs down.
If your case is likely to be contentious, choose a solicitor with strong court experience who understands how judges approach family law cases.
A solicitor with mediation training can help guide you through the process and improve the chances of reaching an agreement without going to court.
Inefficiency leads to unnecessary delays and higher legal fees. Pay attention to how your initial enquiries are handled and don’t hesitate to raise any concerns.
The experienced family law specialists
Every family and relationship is unique, which is why we provide personalised legal solutions to suit your specific circumstances.
Belderbos Solicitors, based in Rutland, is a dedicated family law firm, solely focused on helping individuals navigate relationship issues, financial matters, and child arrangements.
Whether you’re facing a divorce, separation, or considering a pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreement, we’ll listen to your needs and work towards the best possible outcome for you, your finances, and your children.
If children are involved, we specialise in child arrangement matters, helping you establish where they will live and how time is shared between parents after separation.
Family law disputes can be highly emotional and complex. As experienced family law specialists, we provide clear, compassionate advice to help you make informed decisions with confidence and peace of mind. We care about you and your family’s future.
We are members Resolution
It’s very easy when emotions run high for people to do and say unkind things that have a long-lasting impact and only make matters worse. Anger and fear will often lead to confrontation in the family law courts and all the cost and stress that can involve. There is another, better way.
Together with around 6,500 other family lawyers and professionals, we are members of an organisation called Resolution. Resolution members are committed to resolving family disputes constructively and we follow a Code of Practice that promotes a non-confrontational approach to family problems. Resolution encourages solutions that consider the needs of your whole family and are particularly focused on the best interests of the children involved.
Today, more than four out of five divorce cases will not end up in court. Indeed, the family law courts actively encourage people to resolve issues in a non-confrontational way. The many benefits of doing so include:
- avoid the stress of going to court
- help to avoid rifts developing between the parties
- reduce time and cost
- improve future communication and relationships
- a much higher success rate in reaching agreement
Our highly experienced and qualified team family law specialists can help you avoid court. Then you will complete a divorce or separation without the cost, stress and confrontation typically experienced if using traditional court process. We’ll enable you to make child arrangements in the very best interests of your child or children. If you’re getting married, just married or cohabiting, our team will make sure you and your spouse or partner reach a practical agreement that suits you both.
In some family matters, of course, court is unavoidable. Both parties need to commit to an out-of-court approach when a relationship breaks down, and this is not always possible. If litigation is the path you must take, we will represent you robustly in court, too.
Whether it’s court or an out-of-court approach, such as mediation, you can trust Belderbos Solicitors to help you resolve your relationship and family matters. We are your experienced specialists in family law.
