Free webinar for those thinking of separating at this difficult time

The Family Law Company offers support to those facing separation

After the success of a webinar offering guidance on co-parenting to separated parents during the Covid-19 pandemic, The Family Law Company is following up with another, designed to help anyone who is thinking of ending their relationship.

Specialist divorce and finance lawyer Donna Hart explains the thinking behind the ‘Facing Separation’ webinar. “There’s no doubt whatsoever that lockdown has put additional pressures on couples, particularly those with children.

“Facing the decision to end your relationship is often traumatic, even more so at the moment. It’s rarely a black and white decision and is fraught with mixed emotions and uncertainty. The pressure to make the ‘right' decision can be enormous, especially when you have children.”

For this webinar, Donna will be joined by relationship counsellor Sarah Ashworth who will discuss the three stages of relationships, why they break down and how to rekindle a relationship with the hope that separation and divorce can be averted. Sarah will also talk about ways of coping if separation is inevitable, with Donna providing guidance on the legal steps you need to take.

A Q&A will cover a variety of frequently asked questions. Questions can also be put to Donna and Sarah in advance by emailing marketing@thefamilylawco.com before 10am on Wednesday 14th May 2020, and they will do their best to answer these.

The webinar takes place on Thursday May 21 at 11am and should last approximately 45 minutes.

Future webinars include ‘Moving in and Moving Out - Living Together and the Law’ on May 28, when Barrister Christian Gape from Magdalen Chambers and The Family Law Company’s unmarried couples specialist David Cobern will look at the emotional and legal ramifications for those who decided to move in together pre-lockdown, who either wish to formalise things and stay together, or who now think it’s time to move out.
