Legal Separation

The legal separation allows you to live apart, without divorcing or ending a civil partnership.
The reasons for separation are similar to those of divorce such as adultery or unreasonable behaviour. However, the main grounds for divorce demonstrating that “the marriage is irretrievably broken down” do not need to be met.

Examples of legal separation include, for instance, religious reasons against divorce or when a couple has been married less than a year or simply requires time and space to work out if they would like to end the marriage.

Our team of solicitors will advise with diligence ensuring that you understand the process and have a peace of mind during the proceedings.
