Family Law Solicitors in Sussex
Why choose Hart Reade?
Hart Reade know how important it is to amicably resolve family matters as quickly and effectively as possible. We are solicitors based in Eastbourne, Meads, Polegate and Hailsham, in East Sussex. Our family team consists of qualified Solicitors, Lawyers and Legal Executives with many years of relevant experience in Family Law.
In particular – Family Finance, Civil Partnerships, Unmarried Couples (including separation and property disputes) and all matters involving Children to include Residence (Custody) and Contact (Access).
Our Lawyers exclusively practice Family Law. You can have confidence that your representative is suitably qualified and has the expertise to give prudent, considered and sound advice. We have chosen to have our offices in Eastbourne, Polegate and Hailsham. However we see many clients from Bexhill, Seaford, Battle, Heathfield, Uckfield and Lewes and other towns in and around Sussex. We also are proud to say that quite a few of our clients come from as far as Tunbridge Wells in Kent. Some families would rather work with a solicitor who is not in their local town, especially when it comes to the delicate nature of any family matters.
We will help with cases ranging from simple and straightforward matters where agreement has already been reached. Cases where negotiation is required on your behalf to achieve a settlement. To the more complex matters where Court proceedings are needed. We advise in respect of all forms of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) – i.e. resolving matters without Court intervention. This includes Solicitor assisted settlement, Mediation and Collaborative Law.
We are specialist Solicitors in Sussex and experts in all areas of Family Law.
