# Libra Family Law
Libra Family Law, based in Cheltenham, provides affordable legal support for individuals navigating family breakdown. Founded by Samantha Alderman, who recognises the financial and emotional strain of family law proceedings, the firm specialises in helping people of low to moderate incomes access professional guidance without prohibitive costs.
The business serves those going through divorce, separation, and related family disputes who need legal advice but face barriers to traditional solicitor fees. This includes individuals seeking to resolve matters amicably, those requiring court representation, and people needing support as Mackenzie Friends during hearings.
What distinguishes Libra Family Law is its accessibility and client-focused approach. The firm offers a free 15-minute initial consultation, followed by transparent, flexible fee structures tailored to individual needs.
