Divorce Solicitors London

Understanding the Divorce Process

Divorce is a legal process that marks the end of a marriage. In order to obtain a divorce in England and Wales, one or both parties must apply to the court for an order that acknowledges the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. As of April 6, 2022, the introduction of the no-fault divorce law has made the process more streamlined and less contentious.

Under the new law, couples are no longer required to assign blame or prove fault for the breakdown of the relationship. Instead, the focus is on promoting a constructive approach to separation, encouraging reconciliation and reflection whenever possible. Both parties can agree to divorce, and the judge will grant the application without considering the reasons. This change aims to reduce conflict and promote a more positive transition for all parties involved.

Applying for a Divorce

Our divorce solicitors will guide you through the process of applying for a divorce. We will ensure that all necessary documents are prepared accurately and efficiently, saving you time and reducing any potential delays. Our goal is to make this initial step as smooth as possible, allowing you to focus on the emotional aspects of the divorce.

Financial Settlements

One of the main concerns during divorce is the division of finances. Our divorce solicitors have extensive experience in handling complex financial matters and will work diligently to achieve a fair and equitable settlement. We explore various avenues of dispute resolution, such as mediation, collaboration, and negotiation, to reach an agreement that meets your financial needs and objectives.
We understand the importance of preserving your financial stability and ensuring the best possible outcome for your future. Our family law team will meticulously analyse your financial situation, taking into account assets, properties, pensions, and any other relevant factors to achieve a comprehensive financial settlement.

Child Arrangements

When children are involved in a divorce, it is essential to prioritise their well-being and establish suitable arrangements for their care and upbringing. Our divorce lawyers are well-versed in child law matters and will guide you through the process of creating a child arrangement plan that serves the best interests of your children.

We understand the sensitivity surrounding child custody and visitation rights, and we strive to facilitate open and constructive communication between parents. Our goal is to help you establish a parenting plan that ensures the emotional and physical well-being of your children, promoting a positive co-parenting relationship.

Alternative Dispute Resolution

At Family Law London, we prioritise non-confrontational approaches to divorce whenever possible. We believe that resolving disputes outside of court can save time, reduce costs, and minimise unnecessary conflict. Our family team is highly skilled in alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation, collaboration, and arbitration.

Mediation allows couples to engage in facilitated discussions to reach mutually acceptable agreements. Collaboration involves working with both parties and their solicitors in a cooperative manner to find resolutions that meet everyone's needs. Arbitration provides a private and binding decision by a neutral third party.

By choosing alternative dispute resolution methods, you have greater control over the outcomes and can work towards fair and sustainable solutions that prioritise your family's well-being.
