Questions my clients ask me

A child’s birth mother will automatically have parental responsibility. A father will usually have parental responsibility if he is married to the child’s mother or listed on the child’s birth certificate.

The former matrimonial home is an asset of the marriage and will therefore be placed in the ‘matrimonial pot’ and considered the same way as all other assets, irrespective of whose name those assets are in. Although you may not have a legal interest, you will have a beneficial interest.

Personal or financial misconduct will only be taken into account in very limited circumstances and it is extremely rare. The grounds for divorce are generally considered irrelevant during financial proceedings and therefore, it is important not to lose sight of the bigger picture.

Read what my clients say about me

Amy-Marie Vale recently assisted a client in securing an urgent non-molestation order against her client’s ex-partner. The order would protect both her and her children’s safety where there were serious allegations of domestic abuse. She was supported by Chartered Legal Executive Jennifer-Lindup Salmon during the process.

Amy-Marie also successfully obtained a child arrangements order and prohibited steps order to prevent the father from removing the children from the client’s care, the Court having determined that this  was in the children’s best interests to safeguard them from harm.

After the case concluded, Amy-Marie’s client said: “My whole life and my children’s life is much better. It’s all thanks to you and what you’ve done for me. Thank you very much. I will always be grateful to meet you and for your help”.
