Not at all. Here in England and Wales, you do not need to present a reason for your divorce as we have a ‘no-fault divorce’ sys. With this in mind, during your divorce application, all you need to do is say that the marriage has broken down. 

The court fee for a divorce is £612 – which is a standard cost. However, the price for the other aspects of your divorce, like solicitor fees, vary due to the complexities of the case. This can include if children are involved and any financial settlements.

If there is a court order that declares where a child lives, they have to do that until they are 18. If not, a child can choose where to live at 16.

Each divorce is unique, and therefore the length of the process differs. On average, a simple divorce is complete between 6 and 8 months but this doesn’t include complicating factors, such as children or finances.
