Family Solicitors in Morden

Morden is home to the Baitul Futuh Mosque, built by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, and local solicitors advise clients from a range of faiths and cultural backgrounds. If a couple had only a religious ceremony, or married abroad, it can matter whether the marriage is recognised in English law, since that affects the financial claims each partner can make. Family and divorce solicitors in Morden explain how a religious divorce relates to the civil process and handle divorce and dissolution. They negotiate settlements over the home, savings and pensions, help parents with child arrangements and advise couples who were never married on property disputes. They also draft prenuptial and cohabitation agreements, explain mediation and can seek an urgent non-molestation order.

Divorce, children and domestic abuse cases from Morden may be heard at Croydon County Court and Family Court on Altyre Road.

Citizens Advice Merton and Lambeth has an office at Crown Parade in Morden, where people can drop in for free advice. Merton Council’s commissioned domestic abuse service provides confidential support and safety planning.
