What is Family Law?

Family law is an area of the law that deals with family matters and domestic relations. It can cover a wide variety of areas and can be an extremely sensitive case.

How long will it take?

We understand that some people seeking legal advice regarding family law have experienced a difficult time before they reach out. They may be cautious as to how long the process of resolving these issues may take and the strain it may cause. For the majority of cases, mediations take place with the goal of reaching an agreement; therefore the duration is generally governed by the speed of those mediations. At Tallans, we advise that unless an agreement is distinctly achievable within the first few months, that proceedings are suitable. Once that occurs, the court timetable then becomes a factor in the resolution time. As an example, in financial proceedings following divorce, the initial court appointment is marked for 3 months after the issue of proceedings with the court. If an agreement is not reached before that meeting and/or terms are not agreed at court at the appointment, then a further date would be set by the court for roughly 3 months later and so on.

We will consider all your options no matter your family law legal query that you have. Once we know the options available to you, we will help you to make an informed decision as to your next best steps and what the process will look like for you.
