Family Solicitors in Waltham Abbey

Waltham Abbey is a market town in the Epping Forest district of Essex, named after its medieval abbey church and close to the M25. Parents can agree child maintenance themselves or use the Child Maintenance Service, with the courts involved only in limited cases such as school fees or disability costs. Family and divorce solicitors in Waltham Abbey explain how maintenance fits with the division of the home, savings and pensions, and they act in divorce and civil partnership dissolution. They also help with child arrangements, advise couples who never married on property disputes, draw up prenuptial and cohabitation agreements, explain mediation and MIAMs and can apply urgently for a non-molestation or occupation order.

Divorce, child arrangements, domestic abuse and adoption cases from Waltham Abbey may be heard at Chelmsford County and Family Court on New London Road or another court in the region.

Epping Forest District Citizens Advice runs a hub at Waltham Abbey Leisure Centre, where people can drop in for advice. The county’s commissioned domestic abuse service offers confidential support and safety planning.
