The Experts in Family Law Matters

At Oakwood Solicitors Ltd, we understand the challenges military families face. Balancing relationships with the demands of military life can be tough. That’s why our expert team is dedicated to providing tailored Family Law services for serving military personnel, veterans, and their families.

We know that Military life brings complexities to family situations, from frequent relocations and deployments to the stresses of extended separation. With almost three decades of experience, our team of solicitors understands these challenges and are committed to offering compassionate and practical solutions designed for military families.

Services We Offer

Divorce and Separation

We provide sensitive and professional support through the process of divorce or separation.

Our solicitors consider the additional factors military families face, such as the division of military pensions, benefits, and assets, while ensuring your rights are protected.

Child Custody and Access

Military obligations, such as deployments or transfers, can complicate child custody arrangements. Oakwood Solicitors will work with you to create custody and access agreements that accommodate your service commitments while prioritising the well-being of your children.

Spousal and Child Support

Whether you need advice on establishing or adjusting spousal and child support agreements, our team will ensure a fair financial outcome that considers military pay, allowances, and benefits.

Financial Settlements

Achieving a fair separation of your finances that meets your needs can be challenging during a separation, especially if there are high-value and/or complex assets, such as a Military pension to consider.

While you can apply to a court to make a settlement for yourself, most couples are now able to agree on a settlement out of court with the right legal advice and support.

Our family law team can help you achieve the best possible settlement for your divorce or civil partnership dissolution with clear, practical advice and support.

Pre-nuptial & Post-Nuptial Agreements

We can assist in writing a pre or post-nuptial agreements.

A Pre-nuptial agreement is a written contract created by two people before their marriage or civil partnership. Typically, it lists all the wealth and property each has before the marriage or partnership and how this would be shared out if the couple ever divorced.

A Post-nuptial agreement is the same, only it is signed after the marriage or civil partnership has started. Pre and post nuptial agreements can be used to ensure your assets are protected and distributed how you wish if your marriage comes to an end.
