McKenzie Friend for Bath Family Court

Bath Family Court

Graham Fletcher provides a paid McKenzie Friend support service to parents attending family court hearings at Bath Family court for location for divorcing or separated parents to attend for Child arrangement order hearings, Non-molestation orders, Occupation orders and Divorce Finance Hearings (ancillary relief). 

Having a McKenzie friend support you means you are litigant in person and speak to the judge directly instead of a solicitor speaking for you - Graham's McKenzie friend service is cheaper and more effective than a family law solicitor.

Graham is experienced in coaching people to present their own case with over 10 years experience in Family courts and over 150 5 star reviews.

Estimate of Fees:

my estimate of fees to attend Bath Family court would be

1 hour 15 min travel to and from court £62
and 2 hours at court (for a hearing pre-listed for 1 hr duration) would be £160

total estimate of cost is £222

Typically I meet most clients 30 min to 1 hr before to discuss aims, negotiate with the ex-partners solicitor or the ex-partner if open to this

I take handwritten notes in court and quietly give advice and answer questions

I give you the written notes to take away and debrief you afterwards

if the hearing is delayed or I need to be present with you for longer than 2 hrs then the fee increases by £40 for each additional 30 min block of time

I ask for a advance deposit of £100 to secure my time in advance so that I can turn away other enquiries for the same day

the remainder of the fee is due on the day before we leave court, cash is preferred but I can also accept direct bank transfer payments

Graham can help you:

Prepare for important interviews with Cafcass family court advisors

Advise you on what to expect during family court hearings

Coach you on improving how you come across to a social worker,Judge or Magistrates

Help you negotiate with your ex-partners lawyers

Assist with writing statements and preparing bundles

Gain a court order that ensures your children have aregular relationship with you or that you achieve a fair and equal divorce financial settlement
