Specialist Divorce and Family Lawyers

When it really matters.

A divorce, separation or family dispute is never just a legal matter. It is your home, your finances, your children and the future you had planned. For most people, it is one of the hardest things they will ever go through. 

We founded Rushton Family Law on the principle of proportionality: every family deserves expert advice, with the time, cost and approach shaped around what is at stake. No two families are the same, and no case is ever routine to us.

Who we are

Built on the Vardags approach 

Rushton Family Law is a specialist family law firm and the sister brand of Vardags. Vardags was founded by Ayesha Vardag, described by The Telegraph as “Britain’s Top Divorce Lawyer”. For two decades, it has built its reputation at the forefront of high-net-worth family law, acting in cases involving complex asset structures, international disputes and matters of a high-profile and sensitive nature, including judgments that have shaped the law itself.

Rushton Family Law was born out of that heritage with a distinct purpose: to bring the same know-how and approach to traditional and straightforward family matters, so that many more families across England and Wales can benefit from it.

  • We specialise in cases involving family finances, including the home, savings, pensions and businesses.
  • We can assist in disputes where one partner earns significantly more, or where finances have not been fully disclosed.
  • Where children are involved, we can help you make arrangements that put their needs first.

If any of the above reflects your situation, early confidential advice can make a decisive difference.
