Family Solicitors in Wimborne

Wimborne Minster is a market town in East Dorset, named after its historic minster church. It helps to understand early what the court looks at: both people’s needs, the children’s welfare and what each has contributed. Family and divorce solicitors in Wimborne advise on divorce and civil partnership dissolution, financial settlements covering property, savings and pensions as well as arrangements for the children. Their work also covers unmarried couples who disagree over a shared home, prenuptial and cohabitation agreements and urgent applications for non-molestation or occupation orders. Where both parties are willing, a solicitor can recommend mediation and then record the agreement in a binding consent order.

Divorce, child arrangements, financial remedy, domestic abuse and adoption cases from Wimborne may be heard at Bournemouth and Poole County Court and Family Court on Deansleigh Road or another court in the region.

Citizens Advice in East Dorset and Purbeck has an office on Hanham Road in Wimborne, where people can drop in. Dorset Council’s commissioned domestic abuse service gives confidential support and help with safety planning.
