You may be starting divorce proceedings, responding to a divorce application, seeking new solicitors for an ongoing case or considering reopening an old case.  Having a top divorce solicitor by your side can make a real difference to your chances of success.

After the first year of marriage either party may start divorce proceedings in England and Wales. This is a paperwork process and there should be no need for you or your spouse to appear at court.  The procedure is started by completing and sending to the court a divorce application form and your marriage certificate.

The courts deal with financial claims and the divorce separately. However, it is not unusual to delay finalising the divorce until financial claims have been agreed and finalised by the court.

We are specialist family law solicitors with outstanding knowledge and experience. We are able to advise and assist you through this process in a constructive and effective manner.

Take a look at our brief guide – How to Get Divorced (No Fault Procedure) – to gain an overview of the whole process.
