Family Law Solicitor in London
When family life changes, it can feel like everything is happening at once — emotions, practical decisions, paperwork, and pressure.
At Kearney Legal, we provide clear, supportive advice and a straightforward plan, so you know what to do next.
How we can help
We support clients in Stratford and beyond with family and personal legal matters, including:
- Divorce (including the no-fault divorce process)
- Child arrangements after separation, practical plans, and court steps if needed)
- Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) — planning ahead while someone has capacity
- Court of Protection / Deputyship — when someone lacks capacity and you need legal authority
Divorce can be emotionally exhausting, and it often comes with worries about the home, finances, and the children. We’ll explain the process clearly and help you move forward with calm, practical steps.
Common questions we help with:
- What happens next, and what does the timeline look like?
- What should I do about the house and finances alongside the divorce?
- How do we keep things constructive?
When children are involved, the priority is a workable routine that supports stability and reduces conflict. We can help you put a clear plan in place and advise on next steps if agreement isn’t possible.
Child-focused support includes:
- Week-to-week routines, holidays, handovers, schooling
- Communication that stays calm and practical
- Court options where needed (as a last resort)
An LPA helps you plan ahead by appointing people you trust to make decisions if you ever can’t. We guide you through choosing the right type(s) and getting everything prepared properly.
If a loved one no longer has capacity and there is no LPA in place, you may need to apply to become a deputy so you can lawfully manage finances or welfare decisions. We’ll help you understand the process and prepare the application carefully.
