Family & Divorce

We understand the stress and pressure that can come with dealing with family matters, from straightforward to complex cases with an international element.

We make it a priority to fully understand your circumstances, and we approach each case with sensitivity and empathy. We understand that family legal issues or disputes can be complex and often emotionally charged.

Our experienced lawyers can assist with a wide range of family law matters, including divorces, pre-nuptials, post-nuptials, and financial disputes relating to finances and assets, such as matrimonial homes and investment properties. We have particular expertise in cases with an international element, such as those involving China, Hong Kong, or Singapore.

We work closely with our clients to develop a tailored legal strategy that meets their needs and achieves the best possible outcome. Whether through negotiation, mediation, or litigation, our goal is to help our clients achieve a fair and satisfactory resolution to their family law matter.

Divorce & Financial Settlement

Helping our clients navigate the intricate journey of divorce is central to our mission at Duan & Duan UK LLP. From initial applications to final orders, we guide you through each stage, emphasising a constructive and harmonious approach, especially with the advent of no-fault divorce and joint applications. We specialise in managing high net worth settlements and possess vast experience in cross-border cases where spouses are domiciled and/or resident in different countries.

Our goal extends beyond simple legal representation; we aim to comprehensively address your concerns. We understand the complexity that wealth brings, hence our focus on assisting clients across all life stages. Rest assured, we handle every matter with the utmost discretion and tenacity.

Children's Law Advice

At Duan & Duan UK LLP, we prioritise the welfare of children amidst family disputes. We offer advice and support on all aspects of a child's upbringing, from general welfare to more specific issues such as changing a child's name or seeking permission to relocate a child to another country. We encourage parents to centre their decision-making around their children, aiming to pre-empt and resolve any discord that could affect their well-being.

We understand that parental separation can be a particularly challenging time. Hence, we offer a suite of support services, including parenting coaching and separated parent's information programs.

Cohabitation & Unmarried Families

Cohabitation presents unique legal challenges, given that cohabiting couples do not enjoy the same automatic rights or protections as married couples or those in civil partnerships. At Duan & Duan UK LLP, we assist couples in preparing for and resolving issues arising from cohabitation, including sharing a home, arrangements for children, and financial and practical concerns.

During relationship breakdowns, we appreciate the effects extend beyond the family to third parties, including corporations and trustees, many of whom are international. Our capability to understand and navigate the intricacies of cross-border disputes ensures that challenging issues are dealt with smoothly.
