DIVORCE, SEPARATION, DISSOLUTION AND NULLITY

by Shalini B. Criminal and Family Lawyer

We can advise you on all aspects of U.K divorce, separation of unmarried couples, dissolution of civil partnerships or nullity and judicial separation.

It is difficult at the beginning of a case to judge the timescale of a divorce although we are confident that we can advise you on an estimate at the preliminary meeting. Very often separate but related issues arising from the divorce will need to be resolved before obtaining the Decree Absolute. Practical arrangements for the care of children will also have to be resolved to satisfy the Court, and it is very often the case that future financial arrangements between yourself and your former spouse should be settled prior to obtaining the Decree Absolute (see below).

A Divorce Petition cannot be issued unless the couple have been married for more than one year. Although it does not matter where you were married, it does matter where you and/or your spouse are living at the time the Petition is issued.
