Services
When you look back to this time in your life, in say 2 or 5 or 10 years time, how do you want to have coped with and handled this part of your life?. When the children are in their 20's, and they look back to this point in time onwards, what childhood memories do you want them to have?. We are happy for you to give our bundle of helpful future-focused questions to your spouse or former partner.
When you are coping with separation and divorce then it is easy to feel that you have few choices, or even none at all. Constructive divorce discussions round the table and with dignity; there are no contested court proceedings or solicitors' correspondence. This option removes any posturing and points-scoring - and keeps costs down!
Collaborative family law is the constructive way to divorce with dignity. Collaborative divorce is one of the best options to have a friendly divorce or an amicable divorce. Collaborative family law has been called the best way to divorce and separate and to arrange child custody. Collaborative divorce has also been described as 'the way your divorce lawyer would do their own divorce.'
If Court proceedings are necessary then you can rely on our specialist and long experience of protecting your best interests and fighting firmly to get the best settlements in court proceedings. In our experience it is often very clear early on as to whether your former partner or spouse will force you into contested court proceedings because of their unfair and unreasonable attitude and behaviour.
As a Family Mediator in Cambridge and London who is also an experienced divorce solicitor and family lawyer then I can guide a separating couple to reach their own solutions to resolve their family disputes with mutual respect. I am comfortable in resolving apparently intractable family disputes and that this will involve complex financial settlements or child custody disputes between parents.

A friend recommneded Duane Plant of DMFL to me, and I'm so glad she did. After getting myself into a bit of a state regarding my divorce and financial settlement, I called Duane and he gave me such good and practical advice, delivered in an immensely calm and reassuring manner that I felt I had the strength to carry on with (let's face it) a pretty stressful situation. I was baffled by legal terminology and felt I had backed myself into a corner. Going forward with Duane, I now have options. What a relief!

If you are looking for a divorce lawyer, look no further. As well as excellent advice from a solicitor with many years of experience you will also receive real care as a person who is going through the trauma of divorce and not just as a litigant. Duane really does have his clients very best interests at heart both legally and personally. He will ensure that the process of the divorce is as non adversarial as possible so that it does not exacerbate an already fraught situation.
Also, one of the great worries in any legal proceedings is the cost, lawyers are continually criticised for making the

Gave excellent advice and guidance on Divorce, Mediation, Family Law and Collaborative Divorce matters. Was incredibly efficient, open and helpful, delivering far more than would be expected from a law firm.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others going through difficult times who needed an outcome that protected both the family and the business.
