The Other Half
Solicitors acting for clients in divorce and financial proceedings have a symbiotic relationship with those clients. They provide the solicitors with fees, which are the lifeblood of any law firm, and in turn the solicitors provide the clients with advice and legal representation at one of the most fraught periods of their life.
