First free initial consultation for family law

Our experienced family lawyers in Leeds will have a free telephone consultation with you to discuss your circumstances. They will then provide general guidance on how we can assist, and the costs involved.

We understand that every situation is unique and many are complex. Our approach to family law is to listen with a compassionate and sympathetic ear.

How much will it cost to use Winston Solicitors’ family team?

Our charging system is bespoke, but we appreciate that the costs of engaging a lawyer can be intimidating, especially if you have never had to seek advice before.

We can discuss all the relevant funding options with you. This includes paying as you go for one-off advice, spreading your costs monthly, where appropriate assisting you with obtaining funding for your costs from the other party or via a third-party provider, fixed fees for specific items or even potentially deferring your costs until you have a settlement.

We have a range of expertise and experience within our team and our family law pricing reflects this. Our family law experts will endeavour where possible to find a solution that allows you access to the legal expertise you need.

We can offer fixed fees for specific elements of your case:

Divorce/Dissolution proceedings: £150- £300 + VAT*
Change of Name Deed: £150 + VAT
Cohabitation Agreement; Nuptial Agreement; Separation Agreement: £variable depending on complexity + VAT**
Advice Package: 1 hour meeting (first hour) – charged at £200.00 plus VAT (total £240.00)***

Comprehensive legal assistance

After our initial consultation we will assist you throughout your case and take you through the proceedings until conclusion. We will charge at our hourly rate but will try, where possible, to set financial fees for each stage of the process.

Tailored fixed fee packages for Family Law

Sometimes you simply need a helping hand with a particular task that the court or other party may require you to do, without engaging legal assistance for the whole process. In such circumstances, we can assist and tailor packages specifically for you, with a cost estimate for each matter.
For example:

Preparation of a statement
Drafting Application Forms
Drafting a Financial Order
Completion of a Form E
Court Bundle Preparation

Following our initial consultation, we will fix a fee to assist with this task and a deadline in which to complete this.

* court fee applicable or fee remission waiver / other costs may be involved which we will agree with you in advance
** fee will be estimated following initial consultation
*** any additional time required will be charged at hourly rates which will be confirmed prior to the consultation

Review for Wendy – Family Law Services at Winston’s Solicitors, LeedsI recently had the pleasure of working with Wendy from Winston’s Solicitors in Leeds on a family law matter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From our first consultation, Wendy was incredibly professional, empathetic, and thorough in her approach. She took the time to fully understand my situation, providing clear and concise advice at every step of the process.Throughout the entire case, Wendy was always available to answer any questions I had, and she made sure I felt supported and informed. Her knowledge of family law is exceptional, and I felt confident in her ability to handle my case. She was transparent about all costs, keeping me informed of any developments along the way.What truly stood out to me was her attention to detail and her ability to navigate what was a very emotionally charged situation with sensitivity and care. Wendy was not only a skilled professional but also genuinely understanding of the emotional impact of my case, which made a huge difference during a stressful time.Thanks to Wendy’s hard work and dedication, I was able to reach a favorable outcome, and I am incredibly grateful for her support. If you are looking for a compassionate and experienced family law solicitor, I would wholeheartedly recommend Wendy at Winston’s Solicitors.

Exceptional Service - Highly Recommended I recently engaged the services of Winston Solicitors and was thoroughly impressed by the professionalism, expertise, and dedication demonstrated by the Winston team: Harriet Reid and Emily Bell. From the outset, they provided clear guidance, timely communication, and a level of care that made a challenging process much more manageable. Their attention to detail, responsiveness, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome were evident throughout. I felt fully supported and confident in their hands. I highly recommend Winston Solicitors to anyone seeking high-quality legal services. Thank you for your outstanding work!

In my divorce I dealt with Teresa Davidson and Emily Bell. I found them both at all times to be professional, responsive and compassionate. Based on my experience I would not hesitate to recommend them for any divorce or family law related matter.
