Paying for your divorce

Having a clear idea of upfront costs can help remove some financial uncertainties that divorce brings.

Stowe offers a fixed-fee divorce package to meet the budget needs of our clients and ensure transparency of legal costs.

Fixed-fee package

Our divorce fixed-fee packages offer clients a cost-effective solution that gives clarity over costs from the outset, without compromising the professional support, advice and guidance you need.

Please note that not all divorce settlements will be appropriate for the fixed-fee option. In these cases, we offer an hourly rate package that is more tailored to your needs.

Please see below.

Hourly rate package

Often used for more complex cases, this package is charged on an hourly rate basis with variable rates according to the experience of the person working on your case as part of your legal team.

To provide you with an estimate, one of our lawyers will discuss your circumstances in detail and estimate how much work is involved.

You will then get a detailed estimate of the work involved, the team member undertaking the work, and the hourly rate, so you have full transparency of the expected costs ahead.

While we make estimates as accurate as possible, it can be difficult to predict how cases will evolve (which can depend on the other party). If anything changes, we will immediately consult you to explain the changes and get your agreement before we carry out any further work.

Help funding your case

There are a number of external lenders who offer bespoke funding to cover legal costs, taxes and fees. In some circumstances, repayment is not required until the case is over.

We cannot recommend providers, but we have working relationships with lenders, including: Ampla, Novitas and Level.

The availability, interest rates and other terms will vary per lender. It is important to receive financial advice before undertaking any loan application.

Legal aid

In 2013, the government cut legal aid funding for most family law cases.

Unfortunately, we are unable to offer legal aid to our clients, as we do not have a contract with the Legal Aid Agency.

Visit our legal aid page to learn more about how to access legal aid, if possible.

What our clients say

Exceptionally professional dealing with a very challenging and emotional chapter of my life, my divorce. Stowe Family Law stepped in when my original solicitor was not providing the level of service I was looking for and swiftly got me back on track and to a prompt conclusion.

Client: Mr H

Rachel Fisher is always extremely well prepared and she offers her clients sensible and considered advice. Rachel is always focused on getting the client the best possible outcome.

Client: Legal 500

Kate, was amazing and very understanding of my situation while proceeding with divorce. She explained my options thoroughly therefore I could make the right decision for my children and I. Kate supported me all the way through the divorce. I would definitely recommend Kate and Stowe Family Law as your family solicitors.

Client: Mrs B

May I thank Nastassia for such excellent service and support in my recent divorce which led to a successful outcome. Nastasia’s pleasant and caring nature was always appreciated at such an emotional time and kept me focused on the main issues. Her detailed knowledge, prompt attention to detail and professionalism were absolutely first rate. Together with our Barrister, Charles Eastwood, what an impressive team. Thank you. I can thoroughly recommend Nastassia.

Client: Mr H

Mira is professional, personable and will guide you through any matrimonial process with ease with her expert legal knowledge. She is efficient, focused with a no fuss approach. You will feel confident in Mira’s professionalism.

Client: Mrs B

Stowe Family Law provided professional support and direction during a difficult and contentious divorce proceeding, involving court settlements for financial and child custody elements. Despite demanding court deadlines and some challenges associated with exchanges between solicitors, Kate (and the Stowe Family Law team) was always able to meet deadlines and even contacted me outside of normal working hours when swift communication and action was required. I found Kate’s review and crafting of legal documents to be very helpful. Kate was able to recommend and co-ordinate with a very competent barrister to represent me during the court appearances and supported those interactions herself during those times. Although going through a divorce can be an incredibly sad and harrowing time, the legal services that were afforded by Kate did aid in making me feel supported and professionally guided during the overall process.

Client: Mr C

Chose Stowe Family Law with confidence. It is difficult to choose a solicitors firm, especially if you are parting with your hard-earned cash and the situation you find yourself in is an emotional one. Legal advice and representation is expensive, there is no getting away from that but at Stowe Family Law, you get value for money in the form of high quality, empathetic and pragmatic advice. Whilst we were busy pouring out our emotions, they were busy focusing on the facts of the matter and captured everything perfectly in a concise and no-nonsense manner. Stowe Family Law really made us feel as though they were on our side and genuinely supportive of our case whilst also being honest and realistic about the likely outcomes of the case, thus helping to manage our expectations. I highly recommend them.

Client: Ms J

Charlotte Newman was supportive, professional and made the stressful process of divorce and child custody less daunting. She was available when I needed her and I couldn't be more grateful for all her help. I would highly recommend!

Client: Mrs O
