Discreet, Strategic, and Compassionate Legal Support During Life’s Most Difficult Transitions
At Greenwich Solicitors, we understand that the dissolution of familial relationships is amongst the most emotionally and psychologically taxing events an individual may endure. The decisions made during such a period are often permanent, deeply personal, and can significantly impact your financial future and the well-being of your children.
Our Family Law department offers bespoke legal guidance with discretion, empathy, and strategic foresight, ensuring you are supported, protected, and empowered throughout your matter.
Multilingual Expertise
We recognise the importance of clear, empathetic communication. Our solicitors are proficient in English, Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu, allowing us to serve clients from diverse backgrounds with cultural sensitivity and linguistic precision.
Our Core Areas of Practice
When both parties agree on the terms of separation, we provide efficient and discreet assistance in formalising legally binding agreements. This reduces conflict, cost, and delay.
We also advise on specific grounds for divorce, including cases of desertion, where one spouse has had no contact with the other for a continuous period of at least five years. In such situations, we guide clients through the process of obtaining a successful divorce despite the absence of cooperation from the other party.
Our solicitors provide measured and sensitive advice on the preparation of pre- and post-nuptial agreements. These instruments provide legal clarity and asset protection, offering peace of mind for couples entering or maintaining marriage while ensuring both parties are fairly represented.
Add the Law Society and GOV.UK Guides on Divorce as (Further additional reading that you might find helpful.
We promote non-adversarial solutions wherever possible. Our collaborative law service enables couples and their solicitors to work together constructively, while our skilled mediators facilitate fair and balanced negotiations.
This approach can be especially effective where there are complex issues around finances, property, or children, helping to preserve relationships and reduce the emotional and financial strain of litigation.
In matters where resolution is unattainable through negotiation, our experienced litigators are prepared to assert your rights robustly in court. We pursue every available remedy to protect your interests with tenacity and strategic precision. We regularly handle complex financial proceedings, including cases where one party has hidden or dissipated assets in an attempt to avoid fair distribution.
We also assist clients in registering their matrimonial rights against property, ensuring their interests are protected until final settlement is reached.
Financial issues are often the most complex and contentious aspect of divorce and separation. At Greenwich Solicitors, our experienced family lawyers provide strategic, detailed advice to ensure assets are divided fairly, financial security is protected, and your future is safeguarded.
We understand that financial disputes can cause significant stress and uncertainty. Our role is to bring clarity, structure, and reassurance, working tirelessly to secure the best possible outcome for you.
A financial settlement is the legally binding agreement that determines how assets and income will be divided following divorce or civil partnership dissolution. This may cover:
⇢ The family home and any other property
⇢ Savings, investments, and business interests
⇢ Pensions and future retirement provision
⇢ Debts and liabilities
⇢ Ongoing financial support (spousal maintenance)
Where an agreement is reached, we can prepare and submit a Financial Remedy Consent Order to the court, ensuring the settlement is formal, enforceable, and provides finality.
Every case is unique, and our solicitors take a tailored approach designed to:
⇢ Ensure Full Financial Disclosure – conducting a thorough investigation so that hidden or dissipated assets are brought to light.
⇢ Protect Your Interests – advising on urgent measures, such as freezing orders, where there is a risk that assets may be disposed of unfairly.
⇢ Negotiate Settlements – aiming to resolve matters constructively through negotiation or mediation, saving time and reducing costs.
⇢ Litigate Where Necessary – if agreement cannot be reached, we provide robust representation in court to ensure a fair and enforceable outcome.
⇢ Financial Remedy Consent Orders – drafting and securing binding court approval of agreed settlements.
⇢ Property & Real Estate – division of the family home, second homes, and investment properties.
⇢ Business Assets – valuing and dividing shares, partnerships, or family businesses.
⇢ Pensions – pension sharing and offsetting to protect long-term financial stability.
⇢ Spousal Maintenance – determining whether ongoing financial support is appropriate and at what level.
⇢ Maintenance Pending Suit – securing interim financial support during the divorce process.
⇢ Child Maintenance – advising on statutory child maintenance, top-up orders, and private arrangements.
⇢ Post-Divorce Financial Claims – applications for a fair settlement even after divorce has been finalised.
⇢ Enforcement – ensuring financial orders are complied with and taking swift action where obligations are breached.
We place the welfare of children at the centre of every case. Our team advises on child arrangement orders, including residency and contact, to establish where children live and how often they see each parent.
We act decisively in cases of parental alienation, where one parent seeks to undermine the child’s relationship with the other, ensuring children’s best interests and family bonds are preserved.
We also advise on parental responsibility, child maintenance, and enforcement of court orders.
In cases of domestic abuse, we act quickly and sensitively to obtain urgent remedies such as Non-Molestation Orders (to prevent further harassment or abuse) and Occupation Orders (to regulate who lives in the family home).
Where there is immediate danger, we advise clients to contact the police and seek medical assistance first, after which we act swiftly to provide long-term legal protection.
When social services are involved, or where children have been removed from their parents’ care, we provide robust representation throughout the public law process.
We defend parental rights and ensure our clients’ voices are heard in court proceedings. This includes cases where a parent is denied contact with their child and has genuine concerns about the child’s welfare or risk of harm.

Begin Planning with Confidence
Your legacy deserves to be protected with the utmost care and professionalism. Whether you are drafting a Will for the first time, updating an existing one, or need advice on trusts or probate, Greenwich Solicitors is here to guide you with discretion, expertise, and genuine understanding.
In addition to preparing your Will, we strongly recommend putting in place legally valid arrangements in the event you are no longer able to make decisions independently. Through instruments such as Powers of Attorney and Advanced Care Directives, you can appoint trusted individuals to manage your finances, healthcare, and living arrangements, ensuring your dignity, wellbeing, and best interests are safeguarded.
Planning Ahead with Confidence
A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document that allows you to appoint trusted individuals (known as “attorneys”) to make decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so in the future. Preparing an LPA is not just about safeguarding against the unexpected, it is about ensuring that your wishes are respected and your affairs are managed by people you trust.
At Greenwich Solicitors, we provide clear, compassionate guidance on preparing both types of LPA, helping you make informed choices about your future and that of your family.
Property & Financial Affairs LPA
This type of LPA gives your chosen attorney(s) the authority to deal with financial matters on your behalf. It can be used with your consent while you still have mental capacity, or only if you lose capacity in the future.
Typical decisions your attorney may make include:
- ⇢ Managing bank accounts and paying bills
- ⇢ Collecting benefits, pensions, or income
- ⇢ Buying or selling property
- ⇢ Overseeing investments and financial planning
By preparing a Property & Financial Affairs LPA, you can be confident that your financial responsibilities will continue to be managed effectively, without disruption, even if you are unable to manage them yourself.
Health & Welfare LPA
A Health & Welfare LPA enables your chosen attorney(s) to make personal and medical decisions on your behalf, but only if you lose the ability to make those decisions yourself.
These decisions can include:
- ⇢ Day-to-day care and living arrangements
- ⇢ Consent to or refusal of medical treatment
- ⇢ Decisions about care homes or residential care
- ⇢ Choices about life-sustaining treatment
A Health & Welfare LPA ensures that your preferences about care, medical treatment, and living arrangements are respected, even when you are unable to express them yourself.
Why Create an LPA?
Without an LPA, if you lose capacity, your loved ones may face a long and costly application to the Court of Protection to gain authority to act on your behalf. Preparing an LPA now provides certainty, peace of mind, and control over your future.
How We Can Help
- ⇢ Expert Guidance – clear advice on the scope, powers, and limitations of each type of LPA.
- ⇢ Tailored Service – bespoke drafting to reflect your wishes and family circumstances.
- ⇢ Compassionate Support – sensitive, straightforward assistance throughout the process.
- ⇢ Future Protection – ensuring your affairs will always be managed in line with your values and preferences.
Clear, Compassionate Guidance Through Complex Matters
Dealing with the estate of a loved one is never easy. The probate process can be legally complex and emotionally challenging, particularly when disputes arise between family members, beneficiaries, or executors. At Greenwich Solicitors, we combine technical expertise with a sensitive, practical approach to help clients navigate all aspects of probate and estate disputes.
Probate Services
Our probate solicitors provide comprehensive advice and support in administering estates, whether simple or complex. We assist with:
- ⇢ Applying for Grants of Probate or Letters of Administration
- ⇢ Identifying, valuing, and collecting estate assets
- ⇢ Settling debts, liabilities, and tax obligations
- ⇢ Distributing the estate to beneficiaries
- ⇢ Advising executors and trustees on their duties and responsibilities
We ensure that the probate process is handled efficiently, transparently, and in accordance with the law, giving executors and beneficiaries peace of mind at a difficult time.
Contentious Probate
Unfortunately, disputes over estates are becoming increasingly common. Contentious probate refers to challenges involving the validity of a will, the distribution of assets, or the conduct of executors and trustees. Our experienced team has acted in a wide range of probate disputes, including:
- ⇢ Will Challenges – disputes over undue influence, lack of capacity, or improper execution
- ⇢ Inheritance Act Claims – claims by dependants who feel insufficient provision has been made for them
- ⇢ Executor & Trustee Disputes – concerns about mismanagement, conflict of interest, or breach of duty
- ⇢ Disputes Between Beneficiaries – disagreements over entitlement, interpretation of wills, or distribution of assets

Practical, Strategic Solutions for Complex Disputes
At Greenwich Solicitors, we recognise that disputes, whether personal, commercial, or property-related, can be disruptive, stressful, and costly. Our specialist dispute resolution team provides clear, commercially focused advice to resolve conflicts efficiently and effectively.
We act for individuals, businesses, landlords, tenants, and investors across a wide range of contentious matters. Wherever possible, we prioritise early settlement through negotiation or alternative dispute resolution (ADR). Where litigation becomes necessary, we deliver robust representation in court to protect your rights and secure the best possible outcome.
We have experience across civil, commercial, and property disputes, acting for individuals, businesses, landlords, and investors. Wherever possible, we seek settlement through negotiation or mediation, but where litigation is unavoidable, we provide strong representation in court.

Our lawyers are experienced in using these methods to achieve swift and cost-effective resolutions, avoiding the time and expense of litigation where possible.

Where settlement cannot be achieved, we provide end-to-end litigation support, including:
- ⇢ Drafting and filing claims and defences
- ⇢ Preparing witness statements and expert evidence
- ⇢ Attending preliminary and case management hearings
- ⇢ Managing disclosure and discovery of documents
- ⇢ Representation at trial and enforcement of judgments
Litigation can be complex and demanding; our solicitors ensure every stage is handled with precision and care.
Unpaid debts can damage both cash flow and business stability. We provide a proactive debt recovery service, acting swiftly to pursue outstanding sums through:
- ⇢ Pre-action correspondence and statutory demands
- ⇢ County Court or High Court proceedings
- ⇢ Enforcement action, including charging orders and winding-up petitions
Our goal is to recover debts quickly, with minimum disruption to your operations.
Residential
We represent both landlords and tenants in residential property disputes, offering guidance and representation in matters such as:
- ⇢ Rent arrears and recovery of possession
- ⇢ Eviction proceedings
- ⇢ Service charge disputes
- ⇢ Property damage claims
- ⇢ Enforcement of tenancy agreements
Our team ensures that your rights are protected and that enforcement actions are carried out effectively, while always aiming for proportionate and practical solutions.
