New Ross sits on the River Barrow in south County Wexford, roughly 33 kilometres west of Wexford town, and people here contacting a family law solicitor in New Ross are usually dealing with separation, a question over access to children, or arrangements for maintenance. Richard O’Shea at Family Law Solutions advises clients from New Ross and the surrounding area of south Wexford, including Campile, Adamstown and Clonroche.
Most family law matters start with a conversation rather than a document. When someone from New Ross gets in touch, we spend time understanding the situation as it actually stands: whether there are children involved, what arrangements are already in place, and what the person wants to achieve in practical terms. That conversation shapes everything that follows, so we are in no hurry to rush it.
From there, the work can take different forms depending on the circumstances. It might involve negotiation between both parties, a mediation process, or drafting an agreement covering issues such as separation, custody, access or maintenance. We also advise on prenuptial agreements and surrogacy arrangements where that is relevant. We explain the options available and the likely steps involved, but we do not promise a particular result, because family law outcomes depend on the facts of each case and the law as it currently stands.
Family law issues rarely wait for a convenient moment, and we understand that people in New Ross contacting us are often doing so at a difficult point. We do not have an office in New Ross itself, our offices are in Dublin 7 and in Kilkenny, but clients anywhere in Ireland can reach us through the contact page on our website, and consultations can be arranged without needing to call in person first.
Early on, it helps to gather whatever documents relate to your situation: correspondence about access or maintenance, financial information if relevant, and any existing agreements or court orders. Having these to hand when we first speak means we can give you a clearer sense of what comes next and how long matters are likely to take, rather than working from a partial picture.
New Ross is well placed for clients from across south County Wexford, including Campile around 12 kilometres away, Adamstown about 15 kilometres out, and Clonroche roughly 17 kilometres from the town. We work with clients from all of these areas, and the fact that our offices are in Dublin and Kilkenny does not change how a matter is handled: everything from the first conversation onward can be arranged by phone, email or video call through our website.
Whether a case is straightforward or involves several connected issues such as custody, access and maintenance together, the approach is the same: understand the situation fully before suggesting a way forward, and keep the client informed at each stage.
Not necessarily. Many matters can be discussed by phone, email or video call, and we can talk through what arrangement suits your situation when you first contact us through the website.
We advise on separation, divorce, child custody and access, child maintenance, mediation, prenuptial agreements and surrogacy law. The right approach depends on the specific circumstances, so it helps to describe your situation when you first get in touch.
This depends on the issues involved, whether both parties are in agreement, and how complex the financial or custody arrangements are. We can give you a better sense of likely timing once we understand the details of your situation.
Taking the first step is often the hardest part. Our team is here to listen, advise, and support you – with no pressure and no jargon. Contact us today to arrange your initial consultation with one of our specialist divorce solicitors in Dublin and Kilkenny.
