We are solicitors in Reading and Henley on Thames, and have been offering expertise in various areas of law since 1991. We strive to add value through our service and through building relationships with clients, and not just processing a job which should be a given.
Our family team is now the largest in the region, and a one-stop shop in relation to all areas of family work, including divorce, separation, collaborative law, mediation, public and private children disputes, civil partnership dissolution, domestic violence protection, pre-nuptial and cohabitation agreements. We take a holistic approach to resolving disputes. When a relationship breaks down the problems are often many and varied. Apart from the obvious emotional turmoil for all concerned, especially children, there are many practical issues to be resolved relating to the marriage, finances and any children.
Our job is to try and find practical, workable solutions to these problems, which will allow each party to move on with their respective lives with the minimum of animosity. Where children are concerned, marriage breakdown doesn't mean the end of the family, and the relationship between the parties should be capable of continuing, although in a different way than before.
This approach doesn't mean that your interests will not be our paramount concern, but they should be pursued fairly and reasonably in a non-aggressive manner - if it is possible to do so. All members of the team are members of Resolution (formerly the Solicitors Family Law Association) and we have members of the Law Society's Family Panel and Children Panel.
Our commerical team aims to be as close to your business as any in-house legal team would be, by building long-term relationships with our business clients.
We have the commercial knowledge and expertise to help your whole business rather than just solving one specific problem. We appreciate that you are busy and believe that we should, as and when appropriate, come to your offices to deal with problems as well as spend time with you in order to understand your business.
By having an in-depth knowledge of your business, its culture and operating philosophy we can offer informed appropriate advice and solutions.
It's often said that buying or selling a property comes in the top three most stressful events that you might encounter in your life (the others are bereavement and getting divorced).
But it really doesn't have to be this way - it's your solicitor, not you, who should be taking the strain.
At The Head Partnership Solicitors, we do all we can to ensure that your conveyancing experience is as smooth, stress-free and short as possible.
It's all too easy to spend so much time worrying about the present that the future can often take you unawares, leaving you unprepared for what life has to throw at you.
We can advise you on how to plan a secure future for your family and finances, and by using tax efficient Wills individually tailored for your particular circumstances we can ensure that your estate passes to the people you want to protect, and in the best possible way.
We can help you plan for changes in your family or financial circumstances, good or bad, and if you do suffer a bereavement, we will be there to guide you through the practical aspects of probate administration - sympathetically and efficiently.
Whether you need advice for the present or the future, for yourself or another family member, we can provide the help and support you are looking for.
