Family Solicitors in Plaistow

Plaistow is a residential area in the London Borough of Newham, a very ethnically diverse borough, and family solicitors here help local people through every stage of a separation. They advise on divorce and dissolution and on dividing the family home, savings and pensions, including what happens to a council or housing association tenancy. Where a couple married abroad or also needs a religious divorce, solicitors can explain how that fits with the civil process. Parents can get help agreeing child arrangements, while unmarried couples can learn where they stand on a shared home. Solicitors can also apply urgently for non-molestation or occupation orders.

Divorce, child arrangements, adoption and domestic abuse cases from Plaistow may be heard at East London Family Court at Westferry Circus.

Newham Citizens Advice sees people by appointment at its office on Star Lane, so people need to contact it first. Newham Council’s commissioned domestic abuse service offers confidential support and safety planning.
