Some issues can only be resolved with proper legal assistance. Where your marriage has ended, divorce may not always be the best or the only choice for you. Clients come to MBS Solicitors seeking a separation for different reasons. Issues pertaining to contact and residence, property and financial issues, aliment and other legal obligations can be factored into a separation agreement. Such issues can make a divorce easier to resolve when you are ready to take that decision.

The Civil Partnership Act 2004 gave legal recognition to same sex partners. Civil Partners have similar rights and obligations to married couples. We at MBS Solicitors are well placed to offer expert advice in Civil Partnership resolutions or dissolutions.

Similarly, cohabitants have also been given restricted legal recognition by virtue of the Family Law (Scotland) Law 2006. Cohabitants have certain financial claims which can be made during the breakdown of the relationship or the deceased partner’s estate. There are strict time limits applicable to such claims. It is imperative that proper legal advice is sought as soon as possible after the breakdown of the relationship. This is a novel area of law and potentially very complex. We at MBS Solicitors are able to offer the highest quality advice to our clients.[/fusion_text][/fullwidth][fullwidth background_color=”” background_image=”” background_parallax=”none” enable_mobile=”no” parallax_speed=”0.3″ background_repeat=”no-repeat” background_position=”left top” video_url=”” video_aspect_ratio=”16:9″ video_webm=”” video_mp4=”” video_ogv=”” video_preview_image=”” overlay_color=”” overlay_opacity=”0.5″ video_mute=”yes” video_loop=”yes” fade=”no” border_size=”0px” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” padding_top=”20″ padding_bottom=”” padding_left=”” padding_right=”” hundred_percent=”no” equal_height_columns=”no” hide_on_mobile=”no” menu_anchor=”” class=”” id=””][title size=”2″ content_align=”left” style_type=”default” sep_color=”” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”10px” class=”” id=””]Making the system work for you[/title][fusion_text]At MBS Solicitors we are able to provide you with advice on financial, emotional and legal issues arising from the breakdown of your relationship.
