Family & Divorce Solicitor in Long Eaton
Sitting on the Derbyshire border, Long Eaton is part of Paulette's wider service area. She supports Long Eaton and Sawley residents with divorce, cohabitation disputes and financial matters.
She also helps Long Eaton parents agree arrangements for their children, and prepares pre-nuptial and separation agreements for couples who want certainty. The law is the same either side of the county boundary, so living in Derbyshire makes no difference to the advice you receive.
Most Long Eaton clients speak with Paulette by phone or video, which saves travelling, but in-person meetings can be arranged if you prefer.
Clients appreciate her honest, realistic approach: she will tell you what is achievable and help you get there as efficiently as possible.
Long Eaton couples who live together without marrying are often surprised by how few automatic rights they have if they separate. Paulette can explain where you stand, and whether a cohabitation agreement or declaration of trust would help you protect your share of a home.
For married couples, she can guide you through the divorce and financial settlement together, making sure the timing of each step protects your position.
She will also explain any options for keeping costs down, such as agreeing matters through negotiation rather than court.

Can a cohabitation agreement protect me?
