How can we help with your family law matter?
Family disputes can be difficult to resolve without legal advice. A family solicitor can explain your legal rights, help you understand your options and work towards a practical solution.
Where possible, we aim to resolve family matters constructively and without unnecessary court proceedings. However, where court action is required, we can advise and represent you throughout the process.

Frequently asked questions
The cost depends on the type and complexity of your family matter. We can explain our fees and the likely costs involved before you decide how to proceed. You can start with either an initial free general discussion or a fixed fee case specific consultation.
We currently offer two ‘no obligation’ options for a consultation as follows:
A Free Discussion by telephone:
- Is limited for up to 15 minutes
- Is designed to provide general information about the law and legal practice, but is not applied against the specific circumstances of your case
- Is not intended for discussion of confidential information and therefore should not create a ‘conflict’ which might otherwise prohibit HGW solicitors providing similar free general information to both parties in the same legal matter
OR
A Fixed Fee Consultation:
- Is limited for up to 45 minutes of legal advice
- Is for a fixed fee of £75 plus VAT @20% (total £90)
- The fee payable for a fixed fee consultation covers the meeting only, and does not extend to any further advice, correspondence, or representation unless HGW Solicitors enter into a separate agreement with you following this meeting.
For further information please contact one of the family lawyers in the Family team.
