Working Mums’ Zone
We understand that mums have a lot going on in their demanding lives and need quick, concise and relevant advice. We also know that it is not so easy to slip straight back into your career and try to juggle inflexible working hours, emergencies or sadly discrimination. We can also help you explore new avenues like buying a franchise or setting up a new business.
There are some areas of law that may only be relevant to working parents that we can advise on, but often you will have the same legal requirements as everyone else. In either case, as working mums here at the firm who juggle our own work/home life everyday, we understand your objectives far better and can empathise with your demands.
Whether you are setting up your own business; buying a franchise; facing redundancy or discrimination; wanting to update your will or create a trust to include your new children; needing advice on your nursery terms or you simply need family law advice, we are on hand to offer specialist legal and practical advice.
The firm employs working mums as well as acting for them, and our founder is a working mum too – so we understand your concerns and priorities.
We also offer specialist advice in surrogacy, IVF, co-parenting, single parenting, adoption, parental orders and alternative family structures. Everyone deserves a family and, if they want it, a career as well. We are here to help support you in both aspects.
