Blandy & Blandy’s leading Family Law team is supporting ‘Good Divorce Week’, which takes place between Monday 28 November and Friday 2 December 2022.
Good Divorce Week is an annual campaign that aims to promote practical and constructive ways for separating parents to put the needs of their children first. Organised by Resolution, a community of more than 6,500 family professionals, this year the campaign focuses around the benefits of seeking early legal advice.
Resolution was founded in 1982 by a group of family lawyers who believed that a non-confrontational approach to family law issues would produce better outcomes for separating families and their children. Over the decades, Resolution has maintained a commitment to a constructive way of working, enshrined in its Code of Practice, while growing to become a membership organisation for professionals that work with separating families. All lawyers in Blandy & Blandy’s Family Law team are members of Resolution.
Partner and team head Claire Dyer said: “At Blandy’s we remain committed to exploring all process options with our clients and in most cases we find that couples are able to resolve their issues without the need for Court intervention.
However, there is always more that can be done. It was a privilege to spend time this week training with so many like-minded lawyers through Resolution (first for family law) continuing to explore different ways of working so we can support and advise clients in innovative ways. Court does not have to be an inevitability even in the most complex of cases.
Blandy & Blandy is recognised as a ‘top tier’ firm for Family Law in both of the UK’s leading guides to the profession, Chambers UK and The Legal 500. The firm was recently highly commended in the ‘Family Law Firm of the Year – South’ category at the national Family Law Awards in London, having also been named as a finalist in 2018.
