About the service

Family and civil disputes are rarely only about the law — they affect your home, your children, your finances and your peace of mind. At AKS Solicitors we act for people going through separation and divorce, parents making arrangements for their children, and individuals and small businesses caught up in civil disputes. We explain the options in plain English, tell you honestly what a case is likely to cost and how long it may take, and look for the settlement that protects what matters most to you. Where an agreement can be reached without a courtroom, we will pursue it; where court proceedings are the right answer, we prepare your case thoroughly and represent you with care.

Our Family Law & Civil Litigation Services

We advise on the full range of family and civil matters, from the first difficult conversation through to a final order. Our core services include:

Divorce, Separation & Financial Settlements

We guide you through divorce and dissolution under the no-fault procedure introduced in England and Wales, and deal with the finances that come with it — the family home, pensions, savings, businesses and maintenance. Our aim is a clear, fair financial order that lets both parties move on, negotiated where possible and litigated where necessary.

Children, Contact & Residence

Arrangements for children come first in every case we handle. We help parents agree where a child will live and how they will spend time with each parent, and we apply for Child Arrangements Orders, Prohibited Steps Orders and Specific Issue Orders where agreement is not possible. We can also advise on urgent protective steps and on non-molestation and occupation orders.

Civil Litigation & Dispute Resolution

We act in contract and debt claims, landlord and tenant disputes, consumer and professional negligence claims, and disagreements between neighbours or business partners. Most disputes are best settled through negotiation or mediation, and we will always test that route first — but we prepare every matter as though it may be decided by a judge.

Who Needs Family Law & Civil Litigation Support?

Our family and civil work is suited to people facing a personal or commercial dispute that they cannot resolve alone, such as:

Benefits of Working with AKS Solicitors

Clients come to us because family and civil matters need more than legal knowledge. Working with our team means:

A solicitor talking a client through their options

Straight Answers

You will always know where your case stands, what the realistic outcomes are and what the next step costs. No jargon, no surprises on the bill.

Family arrangements discussed around a table

Settlement First

Court is expensive and slow, and it rarely improves a family relationship. We push for negotiated and mediated outcomes wherever they are achievable and safe.

Court representation by an experienced solicitor

Ready for Court

When a hearing is unavoidable, your case is properly prepared — evidence in order, arguments tested and a solicitor who knows the file inside out.
