Family law solicitors & divorce lawyers Stockport

There is no specific time that a divorce takes – this is due to the differing complexities of each case. For example, if you need to agree on child arrangements or settle financial matters, this can extend your divorce proceedings.

On average, a divorce takes between 6-8 months, but for a more accurate idea for your specific circumstances, get in contact with our divorce lawyers. They’ll listen to your situation and provide a more tailored timeframe.

The price of each divorce depends on the complications related to each couple, so there isn’t an exact price for divorces.

However, there are some set costs included in every divorce, including the court fee, which is currently £612. Your solicitors’ fees are also part of every divorce.

In England & Wales, for straightforward divorce cases, the process can take between 6 – 8 months. On average, the whole process takes approximately one year. Longer than 12 months is common for cases where there are drawn out disagreements on child and financial matters. It is impossible to predict exactly how long a divorce will take, though a good a divorce lawyer will help give you an educated estimate.
