Chloë is lovely to work with, she always has a great relationship with lay clients and a firm grasp on all issues in the case. I know all of my briefs will be well-organised and easy to navigate whenever Chloë sends them!
Chloë is an incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful and compassionate solicitor who has given me and my family expert advice. If you are looking for a family law expert, then look no further. Highly recommended.
5 stars all round. Honestly, I don’t think there is any other improvement that I require as Ceylan was always listening to me attentively and would ensure I understood the next steps before taking action.
Ms Ceylan Kahya went above and beyond her duties in my case, her attention to details, professionalisms, quality and speed at which she handled my case has been brilliant! I am ecstatic with the results
I needed a document witnessed by a solicitor. In the lead up to Christmas, it was difficult to find a solicitor to do this for me. I contacted Southgate solicitor and this was arranged promptly by Ceylan Kahya.
Having worked with Lucy on several settlement agreement matters, I have found her to be professional, responsive and friendly. I look forward to continuing to work with Lucy in the future. Thank you
I have worked with Lucy on numerous instructions on a wide variety of matters. I have always found Lucy to be highly professional, diligent and knowledgeable and somebody who goes out of her way to ensure client’s needs are well-served.
I have worked with Antony on a number of cases over the years. These have included highly complex family matters. Antony is an excellent solicitor and works tirelessly for his clients. He is very empathetic.
It has been a great relief being represented by you. I am more than grateful for all your tenacity, advice and support in a caring, sensitive and ethical manner
Judicial Separation is a legal process that allows married couples to formalise their separation without actually getting divorced. It involves obtaining a court order known as a decree of judicial separation, which legally recognises the separation of the couple’s financial and legal affairs.
While both processes provide legal recognition of a couple’s separation, Judicial Separation does not dissolve the marriage. You remain legally married but live apart, with court orders possibly outlining arrangements for finances, children, and property.
People opt for Judicial Separation for many reasons, such as not being ready for divorce, religious beliefs, or to retain certain marital benefits while living separately.
It allows you to make formal arrangements for finances and children, similar to divorce, but without ending the marriage. This can include decisions on property, debts, and child custody.
Yes, part of the process can involve legally dividing property and assets, ensuring both parties reach a fair agreement.
Judicial Separation can impact these areas, so it is crucial to get professional advice. Unlike divorce, you might still have rights to certain benefits from your spouse.
The timeframe can vary depending on the complexity of your situation, particularly if there are disputes over finances or children. Our team can provide a more specific timeline based on your circumstances.
