We aim to be 'partners' in helping you resolve your issues, so you feel in control of the process.

We will assist you in resolving all of your legal issues and will take steps to advise, protect and safeguard you in the future.

Services
We consider the needs of the whole family, particularly the children, when advising our clients and endeavour to minimise conflict and encourage communication between separating partners. Nevertheless, we also recognise that some cases need urgent court action and we will not hesitate to initiate Court proceedings and act vigorously to protect your interests, if important issues cannot be resolved by communication and reasonable discussion.
We can help you prepare your will and ensure that you fully understand how your assets will be distributed on your death. The death of a family member can be a particularly upsetting time. If you have been made a Trustee of the will of someone close to you who has died, we can take over the stress and complexity of lodging probate and dealing with assets and beneficiaries.
Life doesn't always go the way we plan it. If you have been charged, or expect to be charged, with a criminal offense, seeking immediate legal advice is crucial. The only mistake would be to ignore the charge hoping that it will go away. It doesn't. Let us help you over the hurdle and get back on track.
We specialise in commercial assistance for small businesses or individuals looking to start a small business. We will guide you through the maze of contracts, leases, franchise and licence agreements, partnership and joint venture agreements and any small business contract in general.
Our aim is to help you understand exactly what you're entering into and once you fully understand the terms of the contract, to be able to make informed choices about any contract or business you are prepared to invest your time, effort and money into.

We recommend you to gather as much financial information together as possible (bank statements, receipts, contracts for purchasing real estate and assets) and keep a journal of important events.
For financial matters, the important things are to make a list of what assets and debts you have now (saleable assets, not furniture) when properties were purchased, how much they were purchased for and any inheritances or family contributions during the relationship.

When I first visited Aberdeen Lawyers I was scared and emotional, as soon as I met with Suzanne all my fears went away, she has this kind of magic to her that I can not explain.
I can not whole heartdly recommend Suzanne at Aberdeen Lawyers enough!
Suzanne made me feel like I was speaking to a good friend she made me feel welcomed and justified all my feelings, I was with Suzanne in my matter for a year and honestly she has become like family now.
At every point in my case Suzanne walked me through it she made me laugh when I wanted to just cry. I have not met a most caring lawyer in my life

I first went to see Suzanne more than 3 years ago for what should have been a straight forward property settlement. I had no idea at that time just how complicated things were going to get. While I was having a lot of emotional breakdowns, Suzanne always remained calm and dealt with each new issue as they came up. While Suzanne was always professional, she was also very caring and empathetic at the same time. Her “can do” attitude and determination to do her absolute best for her client really stood out from that very first appointment. Suzanne and Vittoria were always available for a “calming”

I went through a very difficult (to say the least) and traumatic children custody court case for 2 years. Emmanuel from Aberdeen lawyers was referred by one of my friend, who was going through his own case at the time. He too had only great things to testify about this law firm.
Right from the time I made an appointment for the initial consultation, starting from Vittoria, in the reception, everyone in the law firm were very warm and empathetic. Emmanuel is a very genuine lawyer, who listens and wants the best outcome for his clients.
He makes time whenever needed and is always available to discuss

We would highly recommend Aberdeen Lawyers for anyone needing legal advice or services. We engaged Aberdeen Lawyers to assist with a Probate matter and their service was exceptional. From the very beginning right up until the end. Extremely caring and also professional with our matter, their service and communication was clear, precise and outstanding. Whoever we spoke with, whether it was our Lawyer, her secretary and the receptionist, everyone was extremely helpful in assisting any queries we had. They made this journey a lot easier for us all. Thank you – Paul, Barbara and Family

I’d like personally thank the team at Aberdeen especially Suzanne and Ann-Marie for just being there. Separations are hard enough and stressful enough without having to then deal with family law matters. Aberdeen saved me a lot of court costs and new when enough was enough when the other party just didn’t want to end. Suzanne and Ann-Marie’s compassion through the whole ordeal and experience really proved that I was in a safe pare of hands. There really aren’t any winners or losses in these situations it’s about a fare settlement that is in both parties favours. It was very apparent the
