Going through a separation is never easy, but mediation can help you reach practical arrangements without the stress of court.

Family mediation is a flexible, collaborative process that helps separating couples make decisions about their future.

It can be tailored to your specific needs and covers a wide range of issues, including financial decisions about property, savings and pensions, arrangements for children, such as living arrangements and holiday schedules, child maintenance payments, dividing personal possessions and household goods, and dealing with any debts.

The process is conducted "without prejudice," meaning you can discuss matters openly and explore options without being legally bound to any of them.

If you're facing separation and want to explore mediation, our Family Law team can guide you through the process and help you reach a fair, workable agreement.

Buying a property? Here's why you need to know about restrictive covenants 🏠👇

Not all properties are subject to restrictive covenants, but they're commonly found on new builds, housing estates, ex-local authority homes, older properties, and multi-dwelling residential developments.

These legal restrictions can limit what you can do with your property, from building extensions to running a business from home.

Restrictive covenants are typically found in title deeds and can apply to both freehold and leasehold properties.

They're particularly common where a plot of land has been sold whilst the seller retains the remaining land, or on estates where developers want to maintain certain standards.

Understanding what covenants affect your property is crucial before you buy.

If you lose mental capacity without a Lasting Power of Attorney in place, your family cannot automatically make decisions on your behalf.

Instead, they'll need to apply to the Court of Protection for a Deputyship Order. This process can take months and cost thousands of pounds.

By making an LPA while you have capacity:

🔹You remain in control of who you appoint and on what terms.

🔹You choose your attorneys and set out your wishes

🔹You give your family the legal authority to help when you need it most.

Mental capacity can be lost suddenly due to accidents, illness, or conditions like dementia.

This is one of the most common misconceptions in estate planning.

Despite what many people believe, "next of kin" has no legal basis in English law.

If you die without a Will, your estate is distributed according to the Intestacy Rules, a strict hierarchy that determines who inherits and in what order.

This can lead to unintended consequences. Your partner may not inherit if you're not married, certain family members could be excluded, and your estate might not be distributed as you would have wished. The only way to ensure your assets go to the people you choose is by making a Will.

Don't leave your loved ones' futures to a legal formula. Take control by putting a Will in place.
