It’s a special day for most, but for failing couples, Valentine’s Day looms as a bitter reminder that the relationship is not all it used to be. It’s increasingly common for married couples to trial a separation… but does it actually work?
6PR Presenter, Oliver Peterson, speaks to the Managing Director of HHG Legal Group, Simon Creek, about the legalities of trial separation.
"My family law experience with Mary Roubos has restored my faith in solicitors in general. She not only demonstrated her legal expertise and flair, but also showed a compassionate and understanding nature during the lengthy process. I felt that Mary went above and beyond her obligations as my solicitor, and really listened to me. I would highly recommend Mary and her assistant Debra Wilson, who also demonstrated professionalism and excellence on all levels."
"Always fast and thorough service. Thank you"
"I found Ben most helpful and always prompt to let me know where things were at. Will definately use Ben again and will recommend to others."
"We wish to express our thanks for your help in attending to our mother/ wife's will - Mrs Grace Margaret Vessey. Aimee was extremely helpful and easy to deal with. We are greatful for your help with our affairs."
"Thank you ever so much for all your hard work on my case Nicole, I really appreciate everything you did for me."
"Thank you for such great assistance with the transaction of Flying Domestics on behalf of Lorna Good. It has been such such a pleasure to work with the HHG Legal Group and I look forward to working with you in the future."
"Simon Creek and his team were at all times empathic, professional and confident. My matter needed to be addressed within a pressing time frame, and their availability at short notice and contact after hours was much appreciated. It caused me considerable stress, but having such a thoroughly reliable and competent team to call on helped me to feel in control. Although I hope not to need their services again in future, I would be confident in doing so!"
"A good outcome is what we can expect. A great outcome is a sign of a company which does the very best for their clients. A very big thank you to Daniel Morris for showing empathy towards my small and much needed legal action.
To HHG Legal Group, thank you for a great outcome. I would recommend your company to anyone seeking legal services."
"Your support this morning was amazingly kind, not to mention your totally reassuring competence, knowledge and wisdom that you used on my behalf.

"Sue and myself would like to thank HHG for the way in which our dispute was resolved. It is good to know that people who do not have an understanding of the legal system can rely on people like yourself and the company you represent. Without the assistance of HHG we could not have resolved the problems we were facing, not only have we resolved the issue but the outcome was more favourable then we would have thought possible. Thank-you and please pass on our thanks to all those who worked behind the scenes to achieve this outcome."
