To start the divorce process you must begin by sending your divorce application to court.
You must have been married for at least a year. You can apply online or through the post. And you have the option of applying by yourself as the sole applicant, or together with your spouse as joint applicants.
As the respondent you need to answer your spouse’s request for a divorce. This means filling out the required paperwork and sending it to the courts. You can either accept or defend the divorce petition.
If you are not married but you own a property with your partner and decide to separate, a solicitor can help you to draw up agreements to divide up your shared assets. They can also mediate child custody matters if you have children together.
No! You do not need to prove that your marriage has broken down using grounds for divorce. All you need is solo or joint statement that your marriage has broken down irretrievably.
Uncontested, divorce will take several months, how many will depend on how busy the courts are at the time. Your divorce solicitor will be able to give you a clear idea based on when you start the process and how complex it is.
When you divorce, you will have agree on how to split your assets, including financial assets such as savings, property, investments, pensions and debts, as well as any business assets you own. A divorce lawyer can help you assess these and come to a compromise with your ex-partner.
You don’t need to arrange child residence through the court. It is simpler (and cheaper) if you decide this amicably between yourselves. If you are unable to agree, you may need to use a family mediator to help you reach a decision. If discussion totally breaks down, a divorce solicitor can negotiate on your behalf.
The cost of a divorce depends on a number of factors, like whether it’s contested by you or your spouse, and divorce solicitors fees. The initial application for divorce costs £593 (not including solicitor fees). Other fees, such as family mediation and court fees will be added.
