Separation and Divorce

Deciding to separate is never easy.

Along with the emotional and life-changing considerations, you also have to think about the legal process, financial implications and effect on your relationship with your children.

Separation

Separation is likely to have an impact on your finances and arrangements for your children. You can often take immediate steps to help protect your finances and your relationship with your children.

Longer-term, separation can be a practical alternative to getting divorced right away – indeed, many couples separate for a long time before eventually deciding to get divorced.

A Separation Agreement can be put in place without the involvement of the court or a lengthy procedure. Separation Agreements are flexible and will depend on your individual needs. They can set out your financial arrangements, arrangements for the children, or a mixture of both.

We can negotiate the terms of a Separation Agreement for you, or we can draft one based on an arrangement you have already made directly with your spouse or partner.

These agreements will also typically provide a pathway to divorce in due course, meaning that the actual divorce can end up being very straightforward.

Divorce

Regardless of whether you have spent time separated from your spouse or you are ready to get divorced right away, our team will help guide you through the process with understanding and professionalism.
