Family & Succession

Divorce, custody, maintenance, wills, estate planning and succession - handled with care and discretion.

Family matters are personal. We combine sound legal advice with sensitivity and confidentiality, and we encourage settlement where it protects relationships and children.

In succession, we guide families through obtaining grants, distributing estates fairly and resolving disputes.

What we do

  • Divorce, separation and matrimonial property
  • Child custody, access and maintenance
  • Adoption and guardianship
  • Wills and estate planning
  • Grants of probate and letters of administration
  • Succession disputes and confirmation of grants

Common questions

What happens if someone dies without a will?

The estate is distributed under the intestacy rules in the Law of Succession Act. A family member applies for letters of administration, and we can guide you through the process.

Is mediation available in family cases?

Yes. Mediation is encouraged, particularly where children are involved, and can be faster and less stressful than a full hearing.
