Welcome to George Ide’s family law department

Family breakdown is an emotional time for everyone concerned and, at such a time, strong support and reliable advice from the outset is essential. We specialise in tailoring our services to meet the needs of your individual circumstances, whatever your situation. Whatever has brought you to reach out to our family department, the team will treat you with kindness and compassion and will provide you with clear and comprehensive advice that is easy to understand to help you find the way forward.

Our whole family team are members of Resolution which means they are committed to resolving matters as amicably as possible. We are experienced in all forms of non-court dispute resolution services and offer an in-house mediation service facilitated by a trained mediator. We pride ourselves on getting to know you as an individual so we can give you the best advice. Our approach to each matter is bespoke to ensure that your needs are top priority.

Client Testimonials

I have already recommended Alice. I cannot fault the service I received, it was professional and timely but also really kind and supportive in a difficult family case. Alice also had to deal with the fact that the case involved a litigant in person on the other side and supported me incredibly well with that. She helped me to find a good barrister and was incredibly aware of my financial pressures and supported with this. Absolutely brilliant service. Michelle Brown.

Alice provided an exceptional service throughout the year and a half that I used her. She worked tirelessly on my behalf while I went through an extremely painful divorce and child separation issues. As well as her diligence and hard work, she demonstrated a compassion towards me, and a human side that showed that she truly cared about my situation. She has been exemplary in every way throughout the time that I have required her services. I recommend her to anyone, particularly anyone going through a painful legal process that requires an empathetic lawyer who treats you like a friend. She was also very good at explaining complex legal issues succinctly, which was incredibly helpful.
