Underwoods encourages a constructive and conciliatory approach to legal problems within families.

We do not do legal aid work and we do not offer free first interviews. If price is your main concern, we are not the firm for you. If peace of mind is important to you then we are definitely the firm for you. However where possible we will agree a fixed fee so you know exactly how much the legal fees will be.

Modern family law is concerned with many more aspects of family life than divorce and its unhappy consequences: it looks to prevent rather than cure, by such means as:

• Pre-marital agreements and trusts
• Cohabitation agreements
• Pension provision
• Wills and inheritance tax avoidance or reduction

All work is done by qualified solicitors or trainee solicitors who are in formal training to qualify as solicitors. They used to be known by the better name of Articled Clerks.

We can help with

• Child maintenance
