A West Sussex Law Firm With Strong Local Roots

EJ Moyle has been part of the West Sussex community since 1971, when the firm was founded in Rustington by Eric Moyle. The Littlehampton office followed shortly afterwards, and more than five decades later we continue to advise clients from both towns and across the wider county.

The firm has developed considerably during that time, but the importance we place on personal service has remained.

Today, EJ Moyle LLP is a modern, partner-led practice providing specialist advice across Family Law, Property and Private Client matters. Our lawyers are supported by an experienced wider team, working together to provide clients with clear guidance and consistent support throughout their matter.

We are proud of our long history in West Sussex, but our focus is firmly on the service we provide today: professional legal expertise delivered in a way that is practical, personal and easy to understand.

How We Can Help

Our specialist teams advise individuals, families and businesses across three core areas of law.

Family Law

Our Family Law team provides clear and sensitive advice on divorce and separation, financial matters, child arrangements, cohabitation and relationship agreements.

We understand that family matters can be highly personal and sometimes difficult. Our role is to help you understand your options and work towards a practical way forward.

Why Choose EJ Moyle LLP?

Legal matters often arise at important or challenging points in life. We believe good legal advice should provide more than technical expertise. It should also give you clarity, reassurance and confidence in the decisions you are making.

Our values shape the way we work and what you can expect when you instruct us.

Human First

We never lose sight of the people behind every matter.

We communicate in plain English, take time to answer questions and aim to make legal support feel approachable rather than overwhelming. Whether your matter is personal, sensitive, or commercially important, we want you to feel heard and supported.

We understand that family matters can be highly personal and sometimes difficult. Our role is to help you understand your options and work towards a practical way forward.

Honesty & Integrity

We provide clear, practical and honest advice.

That means being realistic about your options, explaining risks where they exist and being transparent about costs, timescales and next steps. We believe straightforward communication builds trust and helps clients make better-informed decisions.

We combine legal expertise with practical guidance and clear communication to help you understand what is happening at each stage.

Respect & Understanding

Every client’s circumstances are different.

We take the time to understand your personal or commercial priorities before advising you. Our guidance is tailored to your situation rather than based on a one-size-fits-all approach, and we aim to communicate with sensitivity and professionalism througout.

Teamwork & Collaboration

When you instruct us, we work with you.

Our teams share knowledge and communicate throughout a matter, and where appropriate we work alongside other professional advisers to provide joined-up support. We want you to understand the decisions being made and feel involved at every stage.
