Our services for families
Armed forces divorce
Divorce is already difficult, but the complexity can become even more significant when it involves military personnel, veterans, and their spouses. Divorce can impact matters such as pensions, overseas postings, service accommodation, and deployment.
Our experienced divorce solicitors in Camberley understand the unique circumstances that military families face and provide practical guidance that considers both your personal situation and your service commitments.
Wherever possible, we aim to resolve matters successfully and efficiently, including the division of assets, making arrangements for children, or protecting your financial security during a separation. You can trust our advice to be tailored and sensitive, helping you during this challenging time.
Children law
When disputes concern children, they can be particularly stressful and worrying. Our child law solicitors in Camberley understand this and provide compassionate, clear advice on all aspects of children law, including parental responsibility, child arrangements, relocation, and guardianship.
We regularly assist parents and guardians with mediation and negotiation, resolving matters out of court wherever possible and placing your child’s welfare at the centre of each decision. If court proves necessary, rest assured that we will provide robust representation at minimal cost and stress.
Civil partnerships
Civil partnerships allow couples certain important legal rights, but when they come to an end, it is crucial to have expert legal advice so you aren’t left at a disadvantage. Our family solicitors can guide you through the formation and dissolution of civil partnerships, the division of assets, and planning for children.
Our skilled solicitors can help at any stage of the partnership. We regularly assist with drafting agreements for individuals entering into civil partnership agreements, helping to safeguard assets and providing peace of mind.
Cohabitation
Living together without a civil partnership or marriage can create some uncertainty around finances, parental rights, and property ownership. Our family law solicitors offer important clarity, helping you to prepare a cohabitation agreement tailored to your needs as a couple, including how you’ll be protected should you separate.
If disagreements arise, we can help you to find a solution, resolving matters around homes, savings, and childcare. These are difficult situations, and we aim to minimise stress through providing straightforward guidance and strong legal support.
Collaborative law
Collaborative law provides separating couples with a constructive way to resolve disputes without court. Our expert solicitors are experienced in this area of the law and can guide you through discussions that encourage cooperation and reduce conflict.
Doing so allows you to retain control over the important decisions regarding your finances, children, and property while minimising damage to your relationship. BakerLaw can guide you through the process by focusing on solutions and ensuring a smooth, productive experience for everyone involved.
Divorce
The breakdown of a marriage is difficult on everyone involved, and the divorce process can bring a range of additional emotional and practical challenges. Our experienced divorce solicitors offer clear legal advice surrounding property, finances, and childcare.
We reduce conflict and resolve matters in good time, using mediation and negotiation and only involving the court where strictly necessary. Our family law solicitors offer clear, compassionate advice tailored to your circumstances, helping you to achieve the best outcome possible.
Divorce and pensions
Pensions represent a substantial part of a couple’s financial assets and must be considered carefully during divorce. Our family law experts in Camberley regularly advise separating couples on pension sharing, pension offsetting, and other pension attachment orders and schemes to ensure that settlements are fair and sustainable.
We recognise the importance of long-term stability and will work hard to protect your future security. Our divorce solicitors in Camberley are here to help with specialist knowledge and explanations of all of your options in this complex area of the law.
Family mediation
Mediation is a cost-effective, constructive means of resolving family disputes without the expenses and stressors of involving the court. This approach keeps the decision-making power in your hands and that of your family, reducing conflict and keeping the sense of invasiveness that legal matters can have to an absolute minimum.
Mediation is often also quicker, more cost-friendly, and less stressful than litigation, reducing court exposure to your loved ones and providing a constructive means for separating couples.
Finances on divorce
Financial settlements are often the most contentious part of a divorce, particularly when couples have shared property, pensions, or business interests.
Our divorce solicitors in Camberley are highly experienced in providing expert, clear advice that helps you to reach a fair division of assets when you and your partner part ways.
Wherever possible, we will use alternative dispute resolution methods to help you find a resolution, minimising the time and expenses you’ll need to commit and keeping the decision in your hands. Should court involvement prove necessary, rest assured that we will provide strong representation on your behalf.
Holiday arrangements
Arranging school holidays can be complicated for parents. Our child law solicitors in Camberley offer supportive guidance to families, helping them to agree on arrangements that work for everyone involved by creating clear, child-focused terms.
Our solutions will always prioritise your child’s wellbeing and we work hard to maintain strong, meaningful relationships between the child and their parents whilst reducing conflict between the adults.
Maintenance payments
Financial support following separation is essential for providing stability for children and potentially former spouses. Our family law solicitors in Camberley can advise on spousal maintenance and child maintenance alike, aiming to resolve disputes through negotiation wherever possible and bringing matters to court where needed.
With our clear and expert guidance, you can ensure that financial support accurately reflects your needs and your family. Our solicitors can deliver practical solutions to help you secure long-term financial security.
Prenuptial agreements
A prenuptial agreement can provide reassurance for couples looking to get married, helping to protect assets and reduce uncertainty about the future and shielding your interests.
BakerLaw’s family solicitors in Camberley explain the process clearly and work with you to ensure that the agreement is fair, practical, and legally sound. By taking this step, you can enter into your marriage with peace of mind and secure arrangements for the future.
Separation agreements and separation deeds
If you and your partner agree to separate, but are not ready to apply for divorce or a civil partnership dissolution, it may be appropriate to sign a separation agreement (otherwise known as a separation deed).
While they don’t officially end your marriage or civil partnership, separation agreements are legally binding contracts which set out the terms that you and your partner have agreed upon for managing assets, finances and other matters when living apart. Our family law solicitors in Camberley can assist you with drafting and reviewing a separation agreement, negotiating specific terms where appropriate.
Unmarried couples disputes
Unmarried couples often face complicated disputes over finances, property, and childcare when relationships come to an end. Our family law solicitors in Camberley can provide clear advice on your legal needs and help you take steps towards a solution.
When finding a resolution, we will consider how stressful these situations can be and ensure that we move matters at a pace that you are comfortable with. Whether your problem is best resolved through negotiation, mediation, or court action, we are committed to protecting your interests and supporting you throughout.
