Overview

Within Family, Withy King is one of the top tier firms, Withy King provides an ‘extremely good level of service and care’, particularly on ancillary relief, and has a strong collaborative practice. The Legal 500 UK 2010 Edition

Divorce or separation often has life changing consequences for those involved. We realise that the process can be one of the most difficult and upsetting events of your life. Our objective is to give honest, straightforward advice in a sensitive and understandable way. 

Withy King is one of the South West's leading family law practices. Our team comprises expert, sympathetic lawyers who can guide you through difficult issues: divorce, financial arrangements, issues surrounding children, and domestic violence. 

We also have extensive experience of dealing with complex issues arising out of a divorce or separation, relating to property, finance, pensions and company ownership. We provide practical solutions that enable separating couples to divide their assets sensibly and fairly.

One of our lawyers has been named as one of the eight best divorce lawyers in Britain, four are accredited Resolution specialists (formerly the Solicitors Family Law Association) in recognition of their experience and expertise, four are qualified Collaborative law practitioners and three are members of the Law Society's specialist Children Panel.

We have a Legal Services Commission Family Specialist Quality Mark, which is an objective seal of approval recognising the quality of advice given to clients.

We encourage clients to resolve issues amicably, recognising that litigation can be time consuming, stressful and, sometimes, counter-productive.

However, if agreement is not possible, we will not hesitate to pursue your case vigorously through the courts, to achieve the best result we can for you.
