Legal services for people in Barrhead

Family law solicitors for Barrhead

If your relationship has broken down, our experienced solicitors can help with divorce, separation agreements, arrangements for your children and dividing matrimonial property such as the family home, savings and pensions between you and your spouse. Unmarried couples have more limited rights under Scots law, and claims on separation must usually be made within one year, so read about cohabitation rights or ask us early. Our family law team is led by Emma King, who has been rated one of the three best family law solicitors in Glasgow by Three Best Rated for over six consecutive years.

Conveyancing for Barrhead homes

Buying or selling a home in Barrhead follows the Scottish system, which is different from England. Offers are made through a solicitor, the sale becomes binding when the missives are concluded, and sellers must provide a Home Report. Buyers pay Land and Buildings Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty, and ownership is registered with Registers of Scotland. We work with estate agents and lenders to keep your purchase or sale moving.

Our conveyancing solicitors offer fixed fees, and you can get an instant figure from our conveyancing quote calculator. Read more about conveyancing, including the current tax bands.

Wills, powers of attorney and executry

Good estate planning protects the people you care about and makes things simpler for them later.

Making a will is the only way to be sure your estate passes to the people you choose. In Scotland, anyone aged 12 or over can make a will, and it should be signed on every page in front of a witness aged 16 or over. A power of attorney lets someone you trust manage your money and property, your welfare, or both, if you lose capacity, and it must be registered with the Office of the Public Guardian before it can be used.

When someone dies, our solicitors can help the executor obtain confirmation, the Scottish equivalent of probate, from the sheriff court, gather in the estate, pay any debts and tax and distribute what is left. If there is a dispute over the will, we also advise on contesting a will.

Disputes and court work

If you are owed money, are in a dispute with a builder, business or neighbour, or have been taken to court, our litigation solicitors can help. Most disputes can be resolved by negotiation or mediation, and smaller claims of up to £5,000 go through simple procedure in the sheriff court. We also advise on property disputes, recovering business debts, driving offences and disagreements with schools about your child’s education.
