Divorce Support Club

Explore

As a team of experienced family lawyers we know that a separation or divorce can be one of the most stressful things you may go through in life. The Divorce Support Club provides individuals with a safe, informal place to ask questions and gather a toolkit to help you manage emotions, get clarity around the things that worry or scare you and focus on what you can do, so that you feel stronger and more confident.

Introducing the Divorce Support Club

‘Can divorce be a good thing?’ is the discussion topic at our next Divorce Support Club webinar, taking place on Wednesday 15th May between 1 and 2pm. Use the sign up form at the bottom of the page to join the webinar.

To enable us to give you a level of emotional support which goes beyond that which family law solicitors are normally able to give, we have partnered with respected Divorce Coach Claire Macklin to provide a new, innovative and additional service, The Divorce Support Club.

Meeting via monthly online webinars we will be talking about strategies to help you take back your power, challenge negative thinking and focus on taking positive steps forward. Our aim is to create a friendly, supportive place where you can feel safe to ask any questions you might have, raise your concerns and learn new strategies to help you right now.

Perhaps you are finding the process overwhelming, and you feel confused about your options. Maybe you are worried about the impact of your separation on your children, or anxious about how to communicate with your ex. Or maybe you are not sure how to cope with the emotional ups and downs you are feeling.

We recognise there are limitations to what we can do outside of our legal remit. We are committed to offering a holistic service, and to helping people create a powerful support team around them. We want you to have the right support from the right people, at the right time, whether that is legal, financial or emotional.
