Family Solicitors in Burnham On Sea

What happens to a pension when a long marriage ends? In Burnham-on-Sea, a seaside town with many older residents, a pension can be worth as much as the family home for couples separating later in life. Family and divorce solicitors in Burnham-on-Sea explain the options available, including pension sharing or offsetting the pension against other assets. They also assist with divorce proceedings, maintenance issues and the sale or transfer of the family home. They help parents and grandparents with arrangements for children and advise couples who were never married. They can also draw up prenuptial agreements and apply for protection orders when necessary.

The family court in Taunton is currently closed for building work, so cases from Burnham-on-Sea may be heard in Yeovil or Bristol. Citizens Advice Somerset offers a drop-in service at the Methodist Church on College Street, and the Somerset Domestic Abuse Service, commissioned by Somerset Council, supports anyone affected by abuse.
