Family Solicitors in Bewdley

Separating in Bewdley raises the same questions as in any other location: where the children will live, who will keep the house and how pensions will be divided. Family solicitors in the area help couples address these questions, typically through negotiation or mediation, and only go to court if they cannot reach an agreement. They also handle divorce, child maintenance, cohabitation disputes and prenuptial agreements, and apply for protective orders for anyone at risk from their partner.

Before applying to the court regarding children, most parents are required to attend a mediation information meeting, unless they qualify for an exemption, such as in cases of domestic abuse.

Wyre Forest Citizens Advice is in Kidderminster on New Road, and Worcestershire County Council funds community support for domestic abuse throughout the county. Family cases may be heard at Worcester Combined Court at The Shirehall on Foregate Street.
