Bespoke Service

For intimate family matters, full representation with Aequitas often provides the most satisfactory result, whatever the particular circumstances. Our retainer clients have access to all our services whenever they need them, and will receive unfaltering support from their dedicated solicitor through thick and thin.

If you choose this option, you will be charged our hourly rate depending on how long we spend resolving your case. That means, the service will be entirely tailored to your needs, your life, and your family.

Working only ever with a senior member of our team, you will have the benefit of the breadth of our experience, and have the opportunity to develop a long standing relationship with your solicitor. Families are for life, and Aequitas Family Law are here to go the distance with you too.
