More frequently asked questions about family law solicitors in Chippenham
Our talented family law solicitors in Chippenham are available to help with various matters in this area of law, including:
The term ‘family law’ refers to any matters relating to children and families. It includes many different areas but is usually involved in divorces and separations, financial settlements, child custody agreements, and criminal matters such as neglect, among others.
The law surrounding family matters can often be complex. To get the best outcome for you and your family, we advise that you seek the support of a qualified solicitor who specialises in these matters and can show you clearly what your options are. While a solicitor is not necessarily a legal requirement in court and other situations, their advice will prove invaluable to you in getting the outcome you need and deserve. Many of our family law solicitors in Chippenham and beyond are also trained mediators. Mediation can solve family matters amicably and outside of court if everyone involved in the situation is willing to do so.
Family law solicitors’ fees will vary based on the matter at hand and how long proceedings take. Your solicitor will be able to give you a quote for how much this might be before they commence any work for you, allowing you to budget appropriately and feel less stressed as a result.
Every case is different and, depending on the matter at hand, the family law process can take around 4-6 months to complete. Your solicitor will be able to advise you of a realistic timeline and any specifics in your case that may speed up or slow down the process.
With our family law solicitors in Chippenham, the solicitor you instruct will be the one you will be in contact with throughout the entire process, to ensure that you receive a seamless service and can build a solid working relationship with your solicitor.
If you have a specific question about an area of family law, such as divorce or separation, children, finances, mediation, and so on, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Our solicitors will be able to advise you of the appropriate steps you can take to resolve your issue.

I used Tessie from Setfords to help me with a tenancy issue. She was extremely thorough and helpful. Always happy to respond to my endless queries. Tenancy law can be stressful, and it was really beneficial having someone on my side guiding me through the maze of legislation. Thank you!

Aga was absolutely fantastic. Our sale and purchase ultimately ended up being very tricky. Aga was calm, reassuring and kept us informed throughout. She managed to keep us calm when at times the whole chain looked like it was going to fall apart. I cannot thank her enough. Highly recommended....
