The Pitmans family department prides itself on offering the highest quality of service to clients covering a wide range of circumstances. We appreciate that a relationship break down is a very painful time and therefore aim to offer our clients a cost effective, thoroughly professional yet personal approach.

The family team is headed by Partner Marian Lynch who has 20 years experience in dealing with all aspects of divorce, matrimonial finance and separation issues and also sits as a Deputy District Judge.

Our family lawyers are members of the Resolution (formerly Solicitors Family Law Association) and in accordance with its code of practice, we aim to achieve swift and amicable resolutions to all issues arising out of relationship breakdowns. We are committed to dealing with matters in a constructive way and encourage agreement rather than unnecessary confrontation. We also insist upon total discretion in order to protect our clients’ privacy at all times.

Our areas of expertise are as follows:

• Divorce, Judicial Separation and financial matters arising from that
• Separation Agreements
• Cohabitation and pre-nuptial contracts
• Disputes between unmarried partners
• Inheritance Act claims
• Harassment
• Change of name Deeds

The department has grown harmoniously alongside the already successful corporate and commercial departments and in turn is supported by them. By working in close liaison with other departments in the Firm we are able to provide a comprehensive service covering all connected property and financial issues.

It is important to obtain expert legal advice following a relationship breakdown as people are particularly vulnerable.
