Family Law
Here at KMC Legal we have vast experience dealing with Family Law, specialising in the new No Fault Divorce law, Private Children Matters, and Financial Settlement upon Divorce including Consent Orders.
We also specialise in injunction matters before the Court, such as Non-Molestation Orders and Occupation Orders.
We understand that going through Family Court proceedings, can be distressing for those involved, that is why our friendly, experienced, and committed team are on hand to provide support and assistance in every aspect of your case.
Confiscation, POCA and Section 10
We pride ourselves on being leading Confiscation practitioners. Our team has helped to battle the draconian statute and help to shape the law today with leading cases. Our in-house advocate has saved over £1/2 a BILLION on POCA orders over the last decade.
We understand the stress of family homes and legitimate assets being at risk, along with over inflated benefit figures, which the system allows if unchallenged. We meet each client's needs and objectives, proactively and tactically attacking POCAs from an early stage, often obtaining withdrawals by the Crown. We understand the need to involve clients and ensure a high level of client care.
We act for clients from the commencement of POCA proceedings and those who wish to change solicitors, if there has been a breakdown in the client/solicitor relationship.
