Maintenance

Ensuring Fair Financial Support After Separation or Divorce.

Following separation or divorce, one party may require financial support from their ex-partner, either for themselves (spousal maintenance) or for their children (child maintenance). We provide clear, objective, and expert advice to parties so that they understand to the nature and extent of their legal rights and achieve the outcome they are entitled to.


Our Expertise

Maintenance can be complex, but in many cases it is an unavoidable and important issue to be resolved in the context of a family breakdown. Our team of experts guides our clients through the process, ensuring clear, objective, and sensible advice is given as to the level of any entitlement to maintenance.

We provide our clients with clear and objective advice so they can avoid the expense and stress of litigation where possible. Fostering sensible discussions with the other party is often the key to a client avoiding unnecessary court fees and ultimately finalising a workable and fair agreement for both parties.

Our Approach

We ensure that all relevant information is obtained and carefully reviewed so that we can provide clear and pragmatic advice as to the likely order a court will make. Whether you require advice as to how much you are entitled to, or advice on how much you should pay, our advice will be prompt, sensitive, and skilled.


Our Values in Action

Excellence: Resolve sensitive family matters with clarity, care, and the highest standards of legal expertise.
Delivery: Provide timely, strategic, support that reduces conflict, cost, and delays for families.
Respect: Listen with empathy, value every perspective, and prioritise the wellbeing of all involved.
Elegance: Act with discretion and professionalism, guiding families through complex issues, with calmness, sensitivity, and authority.


Why BCR Law

Our experienced team provides clear, strategic advice on maintenance provisions, ensuring fair outcomes that reflect each party’s financial position and needs. With a focus on clarity, care, and long-term fairness, we guide clients through these sensitive matters with professionalism, always prioritising their interests and those of their families.
