Lucinda Holliday – Separation & Divorce Consultant
Considering Separation or Divorce?
I give guidance and support through the separation and divorce process
I am a Separation and Divorce Consultant. My role is to provide strategic support for clients considering or going through a separation or divorce. Having qualified as a family solicitor in 2008 , a family mediator in 2011 and a qualified coach in 2023, there are few who are better placed to help.
I provide guidance on the practical arrangements, the legal process, the arrangements for the children and the financial aspects of the divorce or separation whilst also offering guidance on the emotional and psychodynamic elements.
I will enable you to manage the process as we move forward. Working together, we will ensure that you can make this transition as effective and positive as possible, looking at the situation in its entirety.
When you work with me, you gain a strategic partner who is committed to guiding you through this process with insight, decisiveness, and relative ease, empowering you to make informed choices and move forward with strength and purpose whilst managing the financial and emotional costs of the separation or divorce.
Why use a Separation and Divorce Consultant?
Significant life changes like divorce or separation need to be managed. While often marked by emotional, financial and logistical upheaval, a separation can also present a powerful opportunity.
You have a choice: to either be overtaken by uncertainty or to approach this change with purpose, clarity, and confidence.
