What is the role of an advocate in my family law case?
Your advocate is responsible for presenting your case in court, making legal arguments, responding to the judge, and ensuring your voice is heard clearly and effectively.
Will my solicitor represent me in court?
In many cases, yes, but this is dependent upon your solicitor. At Zeus Family Law, we often represent our own clients in hearings to ensure consistency, confidence, and informed advocacy throughout.
Not always. Where a case is particularly complex or requires specialist legal opinion, we may recommend instructing Counsel. We work closely with respected barristers’ chambers to ensure our clients receive excellent representation.
How should I prepare for court?
We will walk you through every step, from preparing your statement and gathering evidence, to explaining courtroom procedure. We will support and advise you throughout, so you never have to face this alone.
