As parents and grandparents, we naturally want what is best for our families. When family issues arise, you want sound, sympathetic advice. To find a solution, you need advice from an experienced, trusted lawyer who will be aware of the range of options open to you – and give you an honest appraisal of the pros and cons to each.
With a strong reputation in the field of family and child law, each of member of our team is dedicated to working with families on a number of issues - from adoption and child law matters, through to separation & divorce and caring for the elderly. We are not only aware of the law in these matters, but are fully aware of the need to address the emotional and related family issues and, for many of our clients, we are much more than just their lawyer.
We are recognised for our expertise in this specialist field with three accredited specialists in Family Law ( Stephen Brand, Graham Harding and Sandra Sutherland).
In addition, Thorntons can provide families with access to fully trained mediators which offers a different approach to resolving family issues. Stephen Brand is an accredited family law mediator with CALM (Comprehensive Accredited Lawyer Mediators) and he is also, along with Graham Harding, a trainined collaborator.
