Family Law and Divorce

Buss Murton is recognised as having one of the foremost divorce and family law teams in the South East. 

Whether you require assistance with all aspects of a divorce, or advice on a specific issue such as contact with a child, or how best to protect your assets, we have a team of divorce and family lawyers experienced in all areas of family law who can help you.  That experience allows us to take a holistic approach to individual circumstances and advise the best way forward.

We are fortunate in being the only firm in the area, and one of only a small number of solicitors’ firms nationwide, to have an in-house barrister who undertakes much of the advocacy in our divorce and family cases, and advises on the more complex cases.  This gives our clients the advantage of having access to advice from a barrister at a much earlier stage than is normally possible, increasing the chances of an early settlement and thereby  saving time and costs.

In offering assistance and advice across a wide range of family issues, we have considerable experience in the following areas:

  • Separation and Divorce
  • Mediation and Collaborative Law
  • Cohabitation and Civil Partnerships
  • Pre Nuptial agreements
  • Care of Children
  • Financial Implications
  • Pensions advice within divorce
  • Transfer of equity of property assets
  • Dealing with the division of business assets

We also have a particular specialism in dealing with issues around schools admissions and appeals.

We have the ability to place your situation in its legal context and to discuss all the options available to you, with sensitivity.  Together we can facilitate a course of action to help you achieve the best possible outcome for the next stage in your life.
