Stockport

McAlister Family Law, Stockport opened in January 2018 with the objective of bringing city-quality Family and Children Law advice to the residents of Stockport and the surrounding areas. We are aware that for many, facing the commute into Manchester can be time consuming and stressful but that top divorce and family law advice is still desperately needed.

McAlister Family Law’s managing partner, Amanda McAlister, lives in Cheshire and the team have taken their years of experience working at national and international firms and have translated this into a niche children and family Law practice.

Our welcoming office in Stockport is based on London Road, Hazel Grove, and is conveniently located near to the Family Law courts.

Our team represents high net worth individuals, entrepreneurs, business owners, and sports and media personalities. We also represent families and children in Stockport, Hazel Grove, Poynton, Disley and and surrounding areas such as New Mills and Buxton, whose enquiries can range from the division of the family home to negotiating child contact.

Our mission is to exceed our clients’ expectations in terms of expertise, service and value. We do this by:

  • Fighting for fairness in all our cases
  • Putting our clients and children at the centre of everything we do
  • Providing a comprehensive plan to ensure that positive change can happen so that life can move forward
  • By ensuring value is at the centre of our pricing – we will focus on outcomes and agree fixed or capped fees wherever possible
  • Making sure you know who is doing the work – you will receive personal service from our team of experienced family lawyers
  • Giving you clear recommendations, practical solutions and guidance – we will not just recite the law and we will not sit on the fence
