Divorce and Separation
Helping you reach an agreement when your relationship ends
If you are considering divorce or need legal advice following the break up of your relationship, we’re here for you
Supporting you to find a resolution when your relationship ends
When a relationship ends, agreeing upon a financial settlement, dividing property and agreeing matters involving children can be difficult to resolve. We can advise and represent you in the event of the breakdown of your marriage, civil partnership or cohabiting relationship.
As members of Resolution, our approach is to find a constructive and collaborative solution and minimise the likelihood of contentious court proceedings.
If you are a co-habiting couple, there are no automatic legal rights or obligations in the same way as there are for a married couple. This means that co-habiting couples may need to rely on other legal mechanisms, such as property law or contract law, to resolve disputes related to shared property or assets. If your relationship falls apart, our experienced lawyers will work with you to find a resolution.
We can advise on all aspects of divorce and separation, including:
Divorce applications and response to divorce proceedings
Arrangements for children
Financial settlement regarding property, assets, pensions
Separation of cohabitees/unmarried couples
Living Together Agreement (cohabitation agreement)
Pre-nuptial agreements
Post-nuptial agreements
Transfer of Tenancy
Change of Name Deeds
