Right Up Your StreetServing local communities since 2004

We have been producing our community information booklets every month for over 9 years. Starting with High Heaton, adding new areas along the way, we now produce 11 monthly issues.

That gives local businesses complete control over where they advertise. They do not have to commit to mass coverage through a single publication if that does not suit their budget or the geographical area in which they operate.

ALL our booklets are delivered throughletterboxes by professional distribution companies not left in supermarkets hoping passers by will pick them up. This givesguaranteed coverage for advertisers.

Many of our advertisers have been with us a long time, citing the effectiveness of this form of advertising and the open, honest, friendly, straight-forward way in which we operate. That relationship has proved beneficial for all.

11 monthly issues • 52,400 booklets • Over 100,000 potential readers

NO HIGH PRESSURE SALES • NO MISLEADING STATEMENTS • NO BULL!If you want to know the FACTS about advertising in Right Up Your Street

DON’T listen to others - ASK US!

YOU CHOOSE where you advertise - and to how many people!

Advert costs are based on the coverage required - just call us for a quote

Collaborative Family Law is a new way of helping couples who are separating or divorcing. The aim is to avoid the stress and uncertainty involved in the usual court process.

You, your partner and your solicitors will work together at a series of round table meetings. The approach isco-operative rather than adversarial.

Usually the process is faster and cheaper than being involved in con-tested court proceedings.

Jacqueline Emmerson Solicitor has over twenty year’s experience of as-sisting clients with divorce andseparation. She is a trainedCollaborative Family Lawyer.

How we do it?

Upon arrival we respect your home by placing work sheets around the appliance to be cleaned to protect floor coverings, work units, etc. We will discuss the job with you and explain fully what we will be doing. All removable parts are stripped away from each appliance to allow us to access all difficult to reach areas and, where appropriate, will be cleaned in a soak tank in the van, where high temperatures combined with an efficient cleaning solution is designed to loosen and remove all traces of burnt on carbon and grease on shelves, gas hob ‘discs’, grill pans, light covers, etc.

Remember your oven when you bought it? Oven Recover can return your oven back to show room clean. Using the most up to date method your oven will shine again, perform better and make you proud of your oven once again.

Prices start from £40 for a single oven.

INDEX OF ADVERTISERSRIGHT UP YOUR STREET LEGAL MATTERS

by Jacqueline Emmerson

emmersonssolicitorswww.emmersons-solicitors.co.uk

A Meal Ticket For Life?

CollaborativeFamilyLawyer

The popular press is very keen to report on high profile divorce cases. You know the ones, Russian oligarch’s wife obtains settlement of £2 million a year for the rest of her life…and she’s only 28!Back in the real world, where the vast ma-jority of divorcing couples live, what is the reality?Some of the issues that a judge would take into account are:The welfare of children. This must be consid-ered first.The financial needs, obligations and responsi-bilities of the parties.The income, earning capacity, property and other financial resources which each party has and the potential to increase income.The Law Commission has suggested that the law should be changed to be more specific, that there should be a set formula. However, I would disagree. As a divorce solicitor who has been practising for 23 years I have used the same law all of that time. When everything else is constantly changing this piece of law has kept up with society because it is flexible.No two cases are the same and no two clients are the same. Consider the following:Sandra and Tony are divorcing as are Rachel and Andy. In each case the parties are all 52 years of age and both couples have been mar-ried for 15 years. They each have two children aged 12 and 16, and each couple has a home worth £200,000 with no mortgage. In each case one partner earns £30,000 and the other £40,000. So a simple formula would calculate the same settlement for each couple.However, what if Sandra had arthritis that was going to force her to stop working in three

year’s time? What if one of the children had a long term disability which meant that they would never be able to live independently? Do all four adults work in the public or pri-vate sector? Are they on final salary pension schemes? Are any of them in the police force or armed services as they should be able to retire earlier on a full pension. The situations are not the same. As an experienced family lawyer I would pick out the strongest features of a client’s case and advance them. Using the legal criteria listed above, how do you think you would advance your own case?Often the higher earner will give the lower earner a greater share of the equity in their home. In return they will not then have to pay any maintenance. The lower earner must have enough money to be able to maintain the house for this to work.If one party seeks maintenance then it must be for reasonable needs. As you can imagine, a North East judge had very little sympathy for the lady who chose not to work, had no children at home and stated that she needed £300.00 per month to buy underwear! The Husband worked offshore in some appalling conditions seven days per week. The judge ordered short term reduced maintenance to give the lady time to find a job, and presum-ably enough time to sell her vast collection of underwear!
