How can we help you?

Family Law Services in Marbella

Blanchards Law provides a broad range of legal services to its customers – a selection of which are detailed below. 

1) Divorce & separation

A divorce is upsetting for all involved – not just the parents but their children too. It’s also a confusing time. Who will the children live with? Who is responsible for their education – and what about visiting rights?

During this difficult time, we’ll advise and support you through mediation – or, if necessary, by arranging a Child Arrangement Order

Areas we can help with include:

  • Financial orders for children
  • Child arrangement orders
  • Parental responsibility
  • International divorce
  • Paternity rights

2) Financial issues 

Our aim is to ensure you achieve an optimal financial settlement with minimal stress – while also managing your expectations in respect of the anticipated outcome. 

Using  a sensitive approach we’ll lay out the facts – guiding you through the principles and guidelines applicable to you and, if relevant, your children.

Drawing on our expertise in collaborative law and mediation we can often prevent a financial dispute from going to court – saving you time, stress, and money.

3) Trust & inheritance issues

If you’re looking for family law experts in Marbella with proven experience in overcoming challenges associated with inheritance trusts and disputes, look no further than Blanchards Law.

We can help if:

  • A court application is needed to contest a will or resolve an intestacy
  • Locate the most tax-efficient solutions to protect your assets in a trust
  • Mediate inheritance issues and save you money with alternative dispute resolution

4) Cohabitation agreements

In the event of a separation from your partner would you know your rights? In fact, cohabitees – a term used to describe couples who live together – aren’t recognised by the legal system.

Creating a cohabitation agreement will define, in the event of a breakup:

  • How your children, if applicable, are financially supported
  • How pensions, bank accounts, and debts are shared
  • Who owns which assets and is responsible for paying for them

This list is not comprehensive. We do so much more. For guidance, contact a member of our team.

5) Marriage and civil partnerships

Marriage and civil partnerships, although different in some respects, share many commonalities. For example, both have identical next of kin, property, pension, and parental rights.

Using our niche expertise in this area we can:

  • Convert civil partnerships into marriage – a process that is now possible according to UK law
  • Annul a civil partnership or marriage via, respectively, a dissolution order or decree absolute

Examples of cases we've worked on

  • Relocation – We represent parents who want to move away with their children, and those who seek to oppose it. We ensure that we produce a high quality of work and representation. We won a recent case against the odds when a parents sought to move with her boys from Cambridgeshire to Somerset.
  • Unmarried Couple Settlements Common marriage does not exist. We disentangled business and property arrangements between a couple so they could walk away. They simply could not get on, and the business could not function. The children were being very badly affected.
  • Pet Custody – We successfully obtained an order for the return of a much-loved pet, who was
    being held to ransom by one of the parties.
  • Emergency Injunctions – Every week, we obtain orders to protect one party and/or the children from the violence and abuse from another person with whom they were in a relationship.

Our family legal fees are fair and will be laid out clearly in writing in our first letter. We also promise to continually review the cost of your case and advise of any adjustments promptly – meaning there’ll never be any surprises.

If you’re not entitled to legal aid you can:

  • Pay as you go – meaning you can choose whether or not to continue when your fee is used up
  • Pay by standing order each month in which case we’ll forewarn of any adjustments in advance
  • Seek alternative funding by borrowing from friends, family, or your bank

A divorce takes on average 4-6 months to complete. But there will be inevitable exceptions to this rule. For example, if financial issues remain unresolved, it could delay the application for a Decree Absolute.

It’s tempting to cut costs by handling the case yourself.  This is fine if you’re an expert in the specified area. Else, you might struggle to interpret legal jargon or lack the knowledge needed to achieve an optimal outcome – resulting in a reduced settlement in the case of a divorce. 

We offer an initial free consultation, so why not get in touch for an informal chat about your case before deciding?

Choose us as your preferred family lawyers in Marbella and we’ll allocate the best-qualified expert to your case. To ensure consistency the same person will be on-hand from initial consultation through to resolution.
