The pandemic in 2020 changed many things, some were not so welcome but, in a few instances, it motivated us to do things in a way we had never tried before.  A case in point are the now more convenient ways people can access legal help and in-particular our family lawyers.

The restrictions that were forced upon us fostered a general move to digital which means that you can now access the family law help you need much more easily, either on the go or at a time and place that’s safe & convenient for you.

If you have a pressing family situation our team of family solicitors is well practiced at helping our clients remotely.  Contact us using the link below and you’ll be able to find out where you stand.

Face to Face Family Law

By their very nature, family law problems are often complex, sensitive and emotional.  Knowing you can see your family lawyer quickly can provide you with comfort and reassurance.  If you live further away from your family lawyer or find it more difficult to be able to attend a face-to-face appointment many people have found that making a quick video call really can put them at ease. Not only does it allow you to put a face to the name, it can also be easier to talk about sensitive matters when you’re able to see the person you’re talking to.

Being able to have a video call with one of our family lawyers at a time that is convenient to you is for many an enormous relief. Also, our remote support means, you can get advice wherever you are. 

Wherever you stand - Get advice now

Save travel time and money

Prior to the pandemic we were already handling some cases remotely and this continues to date. We’ve taken instructions from clients across the country, from Berwick-upon-Tweed to Land’s End. For these people, getting family law advice from specialists in the comfort of their own home not only saves the time it takes to make a journey to our office, but it also saves the expense.

In times when travelling is now not necessary, many of our clients find it reassuring to know that they can still take steps to obtain help with their family law issues without stepping outside their home.

We now support many people going through relationship breakdowns and divorces whilst only ‘meeting’ one another via video and telephone calls. But divorce is not the only thing we’re dealing with on video calls. 

 

Working online can speed the legal process

Not only does getting family law advice from home mean that travelling is no longer an issue, but it makes some processes faster than before.  Scanning or taking photos of documents and emailing them takes time out of processes that used to involve printing and posting. It’s not just our family solicitors who can receive your mail electronically, but courts are now able to embrace the benefits of technology when it comes to processing divorces. Whether you’re a technical native or new to all this electronic stuff please do get in touch and our family lawyers (as well as our helpful Welcome Team) will ensure you can progress your case either online or in a more traditional way if that suits you.

Online - face to face - saving time & money

So, in summary, if you are wanting to move forward to a new beginning, then our online options get you face to face with our lawyers, can save travel-time and money and might even make things a little quicker.  It’s good to know that in a post-Covid world our family lawyers can help you know where you stand, no matter where you are.
