Representation in Court Proceedings

At Hart Reade, although our primary objective is to resolve matters without Court intervention, there are some cases where Court proceedings are appropriate and necessary; for example, if agreement cannot be reached or if one party adopts an unreasonable stance.

In cases where Court proceedings are required, our family Lawyers in Eastbourne, Hailsham and Polegate are highly experienced in representing clients at a range of Court Hearings, including:

  • Divorce
  • Finances (for married and unmarried couples)
  • Children matters, and
  • Injunctions – Domestic abuse or Harassment

We are able to represent clients at Court either solely as their Advocate (for one off Hearings), or as part of the overall case.

Although attending Court can be a stressful and bewildering experience, our aim is to minimise any apprehension by providing professional and decisive representation, designed to safeguard our clients best interests.

If you require Court Proceedings to be issued, or you have been served with Court papers, please make an appointment and we can consider together how best to assist you.
