Legally ending a relationship is a key life decision that is not taken lightly.  For most people, it is the only remaining course of action following considerable time and effort trying to save a marriage.  Whether you want to start the divorce process, or have received divorce papers from your spouse, our divorce solicitors give expert divorce advice in a language you will understand.  They do so with compassion and empathy.

The divorce process is probably new to you.  Many aspects will feel unfamiliar, such as archaic legal jargon and the many forms that will need filling out and posting.  The divorce process often causes confusion and frustration, instead of providing much-needed clarity.  Our solicitors take great care in delivering that clarity as well as guidance on the emotional, legal and practical challenges ahead.

After understanding your situation and goals, we will explain how things are likely to play out.  We will present alternative options where appropriate, to help you achieve the result you need.

Our divorce solicitors are members of Resolution, an organisation that promotes a non-confrontational approach for divorce.  In our experience, this provides better outcomes for families. Where possible we will encourage and facilitate dialogue between both parties so that at least basic arrangements can be agreed for family finances and children.

We also offer mediation, which is a process conducted by one of our qualified mediators to help both parties reach a compromise on any sticking points.  These points are usually children and finance related.  We offer mediation to help encourage openness and willingness to communicate.  Two alternatives to divorce mediation are collaborative law and divorce arbitration – you can read more about all three here and your solicitor can explain further.

Absolutely! We understand that child arrangement orders (previously known as child custody) are one of the hardest parts of divorce. The family court judges will prioritise the wellbeing of your children because they are usually the most vulnerable in this situation. 

However, child arrangements can be distressing for everyone involved in the situation. Our Guildford child law specialists know this and will be by your side for the whole process. We’ll support you and your loved ones, so you always have expert advice and care. We always strive for non-conflict approaches to family law, which is especially important for children and the family dynamic. 

Everyone’s divorce will be a different price – this is due to a range of factors, including which divorce lawyer you choose, the length of your divorce settlement negotiations, and any child arrangement orders.  

One standard price in a divorce is the court fee of £612. For a more accurate valuation for your specific circumstances, reach out to our law team today. 

Whether you or your ex-spouse needs to move out of the marital home all depends on your unique situation. From the perspective of the courts, they will always try to split assets 50:50, but this is sometimes easier said than done. 

For example, some assets will be more valuable than others, so the marital home could be given to one party and some more assets to the other. Our divorce solicitors in Guildford have years of experience in this area, so you’re in safe hands with us.
