Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. It's a time to catch up with friends and family and spend quality time with the ones that you love the most. Generally, everywhere that you go there is an element of festive cheer and it is a time to overindulge and have a well earned break.

Over the Christmas period people still come up against legal issues that they need advice for such as; divorce and separation, disputes regarding children and domestic violence.
