Guiding you and your family through life’s crucial moments
At every stage of a relationship, protecting your interests and those of your family is crucial. Whether you are moving in together, starting a family, getting married, or facing the end of a relationship through separation or divorce, there are constructive ways to plan for your future.
Our Family team at Forsters is here to help safeguard your interests and guide you towards the best way forward. We assist on the full range of family law matters including pre and post nuptial agreements, cohabitation agreements, matters involving children, financial issues and divorce for clients both in the UK and overseas.
If you are going through a divorce or separation, we understand the process ahead can feel daunting and emotionally charged. Our trusted family and divorce lawyers are here to provide the support you need, managing complex issues in a creative, constructive, and pragmatic manner while always remaining empathetic to your feelings. With experience in all forms of alternatives to court, we will help you find the best process to resolve matters and will take cases to court where required.
If you are considering how best to protect your interests during a relationship, before marriage or when moving in together, we can talk you through your options including a pre-nup, post-nup or cohabitation agreement. We will guide you through the process and put in place a bespoke agreement that best suits your personal circumstances.
Specialising in complex situations involving high value assets and cross-border matters, we have helped many people including business leaders, city professionals, entrepreneurs, media and sporting personalities, landowners, their spouses, partners and trustees.
Our award-winning Family team are known for the highest quality service and achieving the best results. Our focus is always on your best long-term interests. We will take the time to understand your unique personal situation and advise you on the best course of action for you and your family.
Forsters is technically excellent on the law, but also adept and sophisticated on procedure and practical negotiations and tactics. They are respected by clients and competitors, and despite their abilities and the fact they work with very high-profile and ultra high net worth individuals, they have a down-to-earth and friendly approach.
Forsters has a growing and ambitious family law team, with the backing and resources of a full-service law firm. I find the team to be professional, friendly and charming.
Forsters’ commercial awareness extends well beyond understanding the legal issues at hand. It reflects a deep familiarity with the client’s strategic priorities, operational realities and broader commercial objectives, enabling them to offer guidance that is not only legally sound but also commercially informed, practical and aligned with clients’ goals, recognising the limitations and risks.
The whole team are amazing – all the juniors/associates are spectacularly hard working and diligent. They care deeply about their cases. They are super smart and switched on.
The Forsters family team are what you expect within one of the best private client teams in the country: excellent lawyers, a rigorous and realistic approach to their cases and excellent client care.
