Specialist Police Federation Lawyers

Police Federation Family Law Services

Our specialist team is widely recognised as to the go-to experts on police divorce and pensions.

We also have significant experience in representing police officers who are facing a more complex or difficult divorce process, such as disputes in relation to their children and child custody or those who are facing allegations or are victims of domestic violence.

We understand the police culture, language, and challenges that are faced daily. It is this understanding that helps us to deliver the best possible outcomes for all the individual officers we work with.

In addition to providing police divorce service, we have over the years supported the police federation, police support groups, and charities by providing presentations designed to educate and assist police officers who are facing the challenge of a marriage breakdown.

Police Divorce and Pension Specialists

There are many firms across the country offering family law advice to police officers, but few have the knowledge and experience of the McAlister specialist family lawyers.

Whether you are on the old or new police pension scheme, we will be able to advise you in relation to the best possible outcome given your financial circumstances. Our team can provide:

Comprehensive advice in relation to police pensions and divorce
Advice in relation to how your pension assets should be valued and advancing counterarguments when there is a dispute
Advice in relation to how pre and post-marital pension contributions are to be treated (pension sharing) on divorce

Interested in a Free First Consultation and Discounted Rates?

We offer a free consultation to all police federation members.

Appointments can take place face-to-face at one of our offices or at your local police federation office. In some forces, we offer appointments at surgeries organised by the police federation.

Alternatively, we offer virtual appointments via:

Facetime
Zoom
Microsoft teams

At the appointment, we will identify the issues at hand and provide you with legal advice and an action plan on how we can move your matter forward.

We will also discuss with you the costs that are likely to be incurred to conclude matters.

In relation to costs, we offer police federation members a discount on Law Society rates. We also will try to agree on fixed fee packages whenever we are able.
