'It's a gift that won’t exactly spread festive cheer when taken from under the family tree.

But that hasn’t stopped the lawyers behind divorce gift vouchers – which entitle the recipient to free legal advice.

They have been put on sale by Vanessa Lloyd Platt, a leading family lawyer who has represented celebrities including Les Dennis and Anne Diamond.

The vouchers cost £125 for 30 minutes of advice and £250 for an hour, both excluding VAT, and some embossed with a gold scales of justice logo.

Miss Lloyd Platt’s firm said it had sold more than 50 since they went on sale earlier this month with requests from husbands, wives and mistresses.'
