How much does divorce cost?
Divorce costs can vary depending on the matters that need to be resolved, particularly where financial settlements, property disputes, or child arrangements are involved. After an initial discussion, your solicitor will provide an estimate of costs tailored to your circumstances. You can find further guidance in our divorce costs and family law fees guides. A fixed-fee divorce option is available for straightforward cases.
-
What court will I attend?
Most of our cases are resolved out of court. However, where court proceedings are necessary, hearings will take place at Winchester Civil and Family Court. Your solicitor will work with you to ensure you feel fully prepared and supported. You can find further guidance in our helpful guide to attending Winchester Civil and Family Court.
