"This is the best outcome I could have hoped for and without you it wouldn’t have been possible"
In the last 12 months alone, we have helped hundreds of survivors of domestic abuse obtain protective court orders
Here to help
We advise on a range of family law matters—from urgent protective orders to longer-term arrangements for children and finances. We’ll explain the process, your options and likely next steps, so you can make decisions with confidence.
Non-molestation orders
If someone is being harassed, threatened, or abused, a non-molestation order can help protect them. It prevents unwanted contact and can be used when a situation at home has become unsafe or distressing. At Avantis, we support clients to make their voice heard and guide them through the steps needed to move forward with confidence and boundaries.
Occupation orders
When someone needs a safe place to stay, an occupation order helps decide who gets to live in the home (and who can’t). It’s there to make sure everyone feels secure.
Children
These orders sort out who the children live with, who they see, and how big decisions are made. They help families find fair solutions, especially after a split. Our specialist family team can help you through this to ensure the final order made is in the best interests of your children.
Care proceedings
When the local authority thinks a child needs extra protection, care proceedings start. The court looks closely at the situation and makes sure the child’s wellbeing comes first. Our team is here to help navigate you through this complex journey.
Divorce
Divorce is the official way to close the chapter on marriage. It sorts out who gets what, and helps set up new routines for families and kids.
Financial orders
When a relationship ends, financial orders make sure money, property, and assets are split in a way that’s fair for everyone involved.
