Family
Mander Cruickshank has an outstanding reputation and a high level of expertise in this difficult field.

Our professional and experienced team understand that the breakdown of a relationship is difficult to deal with. Effective advice and support is essential to guide you through these difficulties.

Service to the client is paramount, with the emphasis on understanding and responding to very difficult situations.

The Family team is headed by Kathryn Hicklin who is a member of the Solicitors Family Law Association and she is supported by three solicitors and three assistants.

For some years we have met and maintained the high standards required by the Legal Services Commission and have been awarded a Franchise for Family matters. This means that we are able to conduct private and Legal Aid work. Many clients are eligible to receive help with their fees.

We offer advice in the following areas:
  • Separation and divorce
  • Arrangements for children
  • Financial and Property
  • Domestic Violence and injunctions
Mediation
Mediation is a realistic alternative to a potential conflict situation and allows couples to find their own solutions to outstanding issues. An independent mediator is appointed to keep things focused and looking to the future rather than the past.

For further information on mediation, or indeed any Family matter please contact us on 01530 510666 of email on enquiries@mandersol.co.uk
