Who this is for

For people who feel their case has drifted

Family court cases can lose direction. Correspondence accumulates, deadlines approach and the original objective can become buried beneath arguments, allegations and paperwork.

A Strategic Case Review brings the case back into focus. The relevant papers included within the agreed scope are reviewed, the procedural and evidential position is assessed objectively, and you receive a written strategy explaining where your case stands, what is realistically achievable and what should happen next.

Strategy before paperwork.

How Price Family Law can help

What the review covers

We review the papers included within the agreed scope and assess what they mean for your case. The purpose is not simply to summarise your documents, but to identify the issues that may influence the court's decision and the proportionate strategy required.

Document review and chronology

The orders, statements, disclosure and correspondence included within the agreed scope are reviewed and set against a single chronology.

Independent assessment

An objective view of the procedural and evidential position, including the arguments that are unlikely to assist your case.

Issues, evidence and risk

The key issues identified, with evidential strengths, weaknesses and gaps set out alongside the risks attached to each realistic route.

Written strategy

A written Strategic Case Review report you can keep, work through at your own pace or share with a solicitor or barrister.

Prioritised action plan

Recommended next steps set out in order of priority, with the deadlines that matter clearly flagged.

Follow-up strategy meeting

A follow-up meeting after you have read the review to discuss the recommendations and any questions you want to test.

What the process involves

How the review works

  1. 1

    Scope confirmed

    The documents and issues to be included within the review are agreed, and the fixed fee is confirmed in writing before work begins.

  2. 2

    Papers provided and reviewed

    You provide the papers within the agreed scope, which are then reviewed and assessed against a single chronology.

  3. 3

    Written review delivered

    You receive your written Strategic Case Review report, in plain English, within the timescale confirmed for the agreed scope.

  4. 4

    Strategy discussed

Scope

What is not included

The Strategic Case Review is an assessment and planning service. Unless separately agreed and quoted, the £495 fee does not include:

  • Drafting or revising court applications, statements, schedules or court documents
  • Court bundle preparation or rebuilding
  • Correspondence with the court, the other party or legal representatives
  • Filing or serving documents
  • Advocacy, representation or hearing attendance
  • Solicitor, barrister or expert advice
  • Any work outside the agreed scope

If further assistance is recommended following the review, you can decide whether to undertake that work yourself or request a separate fixed-fee quotation.

What clients can expect

Direction you can act on immediately

The review brings the key information, evidence and procedural position together in one structured assessment, allowing you to understand where the case stands and make informed decisions about what to do next.

Clarity is cheaper than another hearing.
