Divorce and separation

Our divorce lawyers guide you through the process, handling uncontested and contested divorces, judicial separation, annulment, separation agreements, and the recognition of overseas divorces. We aim to keep matters as straightforward as possible and to reduce unnecessary conflict.

Financial matters and settlements

The court has wide powers under the Matrimonial Proceedings and Property Ordinance to make orders about finances and property. Our lawyers advise on financial disclosure, the division of assets, maintenance, and reaching a fair settlement, whether by agreement or through the court where necessary.

Arrangements for children

The welfare of the child is the court's main concern under the Guardianship of Minors Ordinance. Our team advises on custody, care and control, and access, as well as relocation, guardianship, and the enforcement of existing orders, keeping the child's best interests at the centre.

Maintenance

Whether you may be paying or receiving maintenance, we help ensure arrangements are fair and workable. We advise on child and spousal maintenance, applications to vary existing orders, and steps to enforce maintenance that has not been paid.
