Divorce

Divorce is the legal dissolution of a relationship between husband and wife. It can be a complex process, but we endeavour to simplify the legal process, and always try to talk a language that you can understand.

We work closely with the other parties to try to reduce the acrimony, and to avoid making a difficult situation worse. 

We aim to reach a resolution as quickly as possible, and by taking the problem off your hands we enable you to focus on other things going on in your life.

In April 2022, The Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020 came into force. This now allows for a statement of irretrievable breakdown, joint applications and for one party to start the process without having to assign blame. 

The previous requirement for assigning blame often created unnecessary conflict for many people engaged in the divorce process.

The change has also stopped parties from being able to contest the divorce.

We offer our divorce services on a fixed fee basis.

Separation

We know that for a variety of reasons, you may not wish to get divorced from your spouse. 

Separation is the process where the parties no longer wish to live together but have not agreed that the marriage is over.

A separation agreement can be formal or informal, and we will guide you through the whole process. We will discuss with you how you would like your children, property and investments to be dealt with during the period of separation. This document can be incorporated into a court order if the parties so wish, in the event that they decide at a later date to divorce.

So, if you are thinking about a divorce or separation, we are specialists and we can help you. 

Need some advice out of hours?

Our offices are staffed Monday - Friday, from 9am-5pm. However, if you need to talk to someone between 8am-10pm, 7 days a week, please call any of our office telephone numbers. We will be happy to help.

We understand that finding a solicitor that you feel understands your own specific situation can be a daunting task. So you can book a free callback with us here.

We have also created a series of fixed-price consultation meetings with a full ‘no questions asked’ money-back guarantee promise.
