Family & personal life

Family and personal life barristers, instructed directly.

From relationship breakdown and arrangements for children to wills, probate, injury claims and immigration, a barrister can advise you and represent you directly.

11 areas of lawBarristers are regulated by the BSB

Life events rarely arrive one at a time, and many of them end up needing legal help. This category brings together the areas that affect you personally: your family and children, your finances when a relationship ends, what happens to your estate, claims when you are injured or let down, and your rights around education and immigration.

Through Direct Access you can instruct a specialist barrister yourself, without going through a solicitor first. That gives you expert advice early, clear fees, and the same person to represent you if your matter reaches court. Barristers are regulated by the Bar Standards Board.

Choose the area closest to your situation below, or tell us what has happened and we will match you with the right barrister.

Through Direct Access you can instruct a barrister directly, without going through a solicitor first. Barristers are regulated by the Bar Standards Board (BSB).

Areas within Family & personal life

Choose the area closest to your matter.

Family (children)

Disagreements about where children live and how they spend time with each parent are some of the hardest to face. A barrister can advise you and represent you in the Family Court.

Family (finances)

Sorting out money and property when a relationship ends is rarely simple. A barrister can advise on a fair settlement and represent you in financial remedy proceedings.

Wills and trusts

Whether you are planning your estate or challenging a will, a barrister can advise on wills, trusts and inheritance and represent you in any dispute.

Probate

When the administration of an estate goes wrong or is disputed, a barrister can advise executors and beneficiaries and represent them.

Court of Protection

When someone cannot make decisions for themselves, the Court of Protection steps in. A barrister can advise families and represent them in those proceedings.

Personal injury

If you have been injured through someone else's fault, a barrister can advise on your claim, value it, and represent you.

Clinical negligence

When medical care falls below an acceptable standard and causes harm, a barrister can advise on a clinical negligence claim and represent you.

Education law

From special educational needs to exclusions and admissions appeals, a barrister can advise parents and schools and represent them.

Personal disputes

Disputes between neighbours, friends or family over property, boundaries or conduct can escalate fast. A barrister can advise you and represent you.

Immigration

From visa applications to appeals and human rights claims, a barrister can advise on your immigration position and represent you.

Family & relationships

For separation, children and financial matters, a barrister can advise you and represent you in the family court.

Barristers in Family & personal life

Direct Access barristers ready to advise and represent you.
