Sensitive issues require care and attention. The breakdown of a marriage or relationship can be an emotional and traumatic experience.
The Family Department at Shanahans Solicitors is headed by Juliet Thomas. She is friendly and approachable and will handle your case in a sympathetic and understanding manner. Juliet has over 20 years’ experience in dealing with complex family situations, financial matters on divorce, and cases involving children. She will provide you with unrivalled care and attention.
Juliet is a member of the Law Society’s Advanced Family Law Accreditation Scheme and is, also, accredited by Resolution. Juliet also has her own Family Law Blog where you can find out more helpful information.
In September 2018 Juliet trained as a collaborative lawyer. ‘Collaborative Law’ is a process to resolve your divorce, finances or children’s arrangements by discussion and negotiation at roundtable meetings rather than going to Court. Juliet is one of the few lawyers in South Wales qualified to practise collaborative law and is happy to discuss the process with you.
