Divorce & Family Law

Home / Our Services / Divorce & Family Law

Family Law is a highly emotional area of law because it involves parents, children and property. The breakdown of a relationship is an emotional roller coaster for all concerned, including children.

We aim to resolve your legal matter without the need to resort to expensive litigation, particularly in regards to family law matters. The Court process is both stressful and expensive and should always be a last resort. At Ormeau Legal we understand that you will be responsible for co-parenting your children for what may be many years to come and it is preferable to resolve family law issues through mediation rather than resorting to litigation.

Understandably, when a relationship or marriage breaks down those concerned are feeling emotional and it can be a very confusing time for everyone including children.

It is often a time when we are not thinking properly and that is why it is imperative that you seek professional legal advice in relation to who your children will live with and how your property will be divided. We will take the time to sit down with you and explore a variety of options that are available to you.

At Ormeau Legal we are experienced in dealing with Family and Property matters. We are here to assist you right from the beginning of your family law problem until the matter has been resolved.

There is nothing more important than your family and that is why you need to speak to a professional so that you can protect the rights of your children and you.
