Services for Clients
This is a general legal practice with a special interest in Family Law, helping clients going through separation. We also deal with the usual legal requirements of our clients for conveyancing, wills, probate and Estate Administration, elderly client law, employment Compromise Agreements, starting a small business and general legal advice of all types.
Services for Lawyers
Troubleshooting, agency work, consultancy, mentoring - Steve Butler brings over 25 years experience in offices in Bradford and Ilkley to bear whenever he helps other lawyers in West Yorkshire to sort out their practices. From attending court appointments to helping to deal with disastrous problems, we can help lawyers with problems in many ways.
Stephen Butler LLM
New! Mediation Services
I qualified as a Family Mediator in June 2011 to help separating couples to solve their problems about children or money. The training was provided by Resolution, the leading organisation for family lawyers, of which I have been a member for many years. Many lawyers are mediators but most mediators are not lawyers. As a lawyer, with years of legal training and experience behind me, I have distinct advantages over non-lawyer mediators.
