Family Solicitors in Poole

Poole is a harbour town on the Dorset coast, including Sandbanks, where house prices are high. If a separation involves high-value homes, boats or business interests, valuations and a check of the other side’s disclosure come first. A fairly made prenuptial agreement can set out in advance how such assets would be divided. Family and divorce solicitors in Poole handle divorce and civil partnership dissolution, financial settlements and maintenance and arrangements for the children. They also advise couples who live together without marrying, draft cohabitation agreements, explain mediation and the MIAM and can act quickly for a non-molestation or occupation order.

Divorce, financial remedy, child arrangements, adoption and domestic abuse cases from Poole may be heard at Bournemouth and Poole County Court and Family Court on Deansleigh Road.

Citizens Advice Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole has an office at Poole Library in the Dolphin Centre, where people can drop in for free advice. BCP Council’s commissioned domestic abuse service offers confidential support and safety planning.
