English law is an adversarial system. That's a good system when it comes to criminal justice. It's not a good system for families. Pitching people against each other is really damaging. And so we've set up something which gives people the benefit of the law and of lawyers, but under one roof and offering a much more constructive system. We've called it Uncouple.

We created Uncouple to give modern families an alternative to fighting out their separations in court. Instead they are guided together towards an agreement that works for everyone with less stress and less friction.

In this video, Claire Blakemore talks about what Uncouple can offer.
