One of the main areas our solicitors are specialised in is assisting clients in getting a divorce in England or Wales. We do recognise that the process of divorce is very stressful and emotional. Our solicitors are well trained to manage sensitive matters that may arise during the process.

In order for you to commence divorce proceedings, you are required to be married for at least a year before you can apply for a divorce. Once the divorce process has been instituted, you are not free to remarry until the divorce process is complete, i.e. you have received the Decree Absolute.

A divorce can only be granted if the relationship is “irretrievably broken down”. You do not need to prove adultery, unreasonable behaviour, desertion, or separation.

We offer clients detailed and client tailored advice at an early stage to ensure that the reason for divorce is appropriate and all court documents are completed diligently to avoid delays in the process.

Further, durin this process our team of solicitors will assist in the following:

• Taking precise and detailed instructions so that we understand your needs
• Preparing petitions or responses to petitions
• Submitting relevant proceedings to courts on your behalf
• Corresponding with the relevant authorities throughout the proceedings on your behalf
• Advising on deadlines and stages of the proceedings from the start to the end
• Ensuring that even after the matter has been exhausted, our office remains as a point of call for any further advice.
