Issues around family law are often incredibly emotionally charged due to the potentially serious impact.

We understand that for most people making that decision to approach a family lawyer can be stressful, emotional, overwhelming – and often life changing.  Once you’ve taken that brave step our aim at Johnson Legal Family Law is to equip you with the right balance of hard facts and compassion so that you will gradually feel stronger and more empowered, enabling to take back control of your life  and move on.

Where negotiations are unusually difficult, especially where a client feels vulnerable or betrayed, we never shy away from suggesting that additional emotional support on a temporary basis may be helpful.

Such support can be as informal as confiding in a family member or close friend or being able to speak to someone who has experienced similar difficulties – and come out the other end.   For people who find it more difficult to open up about their feelings we often suggest booking a session with a life coach. A life coach can work with you to take the heat out of a situation, enabling you to articulate more clearly, communicate more effectively and work towards a resolution that is fair to all parties.

The additional benefit of a life coach is that they will also help you evaluate new opportunities and options and overcome obstacles so that you can experience a positive change in the way in which you make future major decisions in your life.

The complimentary partnership between Johnson Legal Family Law and a life coach offers blended support that not only gets you through an emotionally complex situation but also provides a new clarity and positive approach to your life going forward.  We are very happy to recommend Life Coach Karen Lothian who offers a 30 minute free consultation with all clients referred by us.
