Merriman Solicitors (Incorporating AB Family Law)

Relationship breakdowns can result in significant personal and financial troubles, which can be both highly stressful and emotionally challenging. At Merriman Solicitors, our experienced team is here to help guide you through your individual personal family law matters, providing support, advice and representation. 

For couples experiencing relationship failure, there are so many things to consider, not least the immediate arrangements for children or each person’s living situation. This means that sympathetic, timely advice is imperative to ensure the wellbeing of each involved party. 

We offer family law services that cater to a variety of different requirements and personal circumstances, ensuring that you have complete peace of mind that we are able to take care of your interests. Should you wish to discuss any of the below services with one of our team, please get in touch.

• Child Matters: We help our clients work through and apply for Child Arrangement Orders to safeguard and determine the care of children following separation.

• Pre-Nuptial and Post-Nuptial Agreements: We help our clients implement effective pre, and post-nuptial agreements, as well as working with those who are having difficulties with an existing agreement during a separation. 
• Domestic Abuse: We provide support, help and guidance to victims of domestic abuse, helping to implement injunctions and protection orders for those who are at risk.
