A ‘one-size fits all’ approach doesn’t work. It is essential that clients feel listened to and get value for money. That can often mean telling clients what they may not want to hear, but the best family law advice focuses on the ‘bigger picture’ and presents clients with a clear route through their current situation, focussing on their long-term goals and aspirations.
