Melanie Haslam

I am a Paralegal based at our Rugby Office and I specialise in Divorce, Civil Partnership Dissolution and Same Sex Divorce which are offered under our fixed fee. I also specialise in Deemed Service and Dispensed with Service applications, and cases where the Respondent does not wish to co-operate or engage in Divorce Proceedings. I have worked for Brethertons since January 2007.

I prepare and draft divorce documentation and other requisite documents which have to meet the Court criteria so that a Decree is granted, and deal with all stages of the divorce.

I find my job extremely satisfying in that I can help and support our clients at one of their most emotional and challenging times that they can experience and give hope for a happier future.

Away from work I love to garden and spending time with my husband, and my two grown up children and my grandson.
