Divorce and Separation Solicitors

Relationship Breakdown

When a relationship breakdown occurs, it is an emotional time. It is sometimes hard to concentrate on all the details entailed in a separation, especially:

The division of property and other assets
The custody and future welfare of any children
Ongoing obligations to one another

Mediation and Reconciliation

Many people have not taken the full decision to separate and divorce. In these cases, you may just need advice on your legal rights and options. The more informed you are, the more you may realise there are other paths available.

During this process of discovery, we sometimes head down the route of mediation with a view to reaching an amicable settlement. This would potentially involve sitting down together, often with a mediator from a suitable organisation, in order to see if there is any common ground to move forward.

Informal Separation

An informal separation does not usually go to court, but is a way in which you can separate amicably. You should have a Separation Agreement drawn up to protect yourself, but this is sometimes an option if all parties can remain agreeable.

Divorce

Our divorce solicitors team can help you through a very difficult time to ensure that you leave your relationship with obligations fulfilled by both parties.

A divorce is obviously a much more permanent solution and as such takes some time to go through the procedure. At the end of this process, you will end up with a Decree Absolute.

If you also have children together and the splitting of financial assets, these are best to be handled at the same time. Ensuring that you come out of your marriage in a fair way needs to be negotiated in an appropriate way to protect you in the future. This is a separate issue away from the divorce itself but can be handled at the same time by our family legal team.
