What our divorce lawyers in Clifton can do for you

Starting divorce proceedings

The first step in getting a divorce is submitting a divorce petition. We can provide clear advice every step of the way to getting your petition filed.

We can advise on matters such as:

• The grounds for divorce, and which approach is right for you.
• How to satisfy the court’s requirements for approving the petition.
• How to minimise the risk of your ex-partner challenging the petition.

We can continue our support throughout the divorce process to ensure your petition is dealt with as efficiently as possible.

Responding to a divorce petition

If you receive a divorce petition from your partner, we can advise on how best to respond in order to protect your interests.

If you disagree with the reasons for which your partner wants to divorce, or you disagree with the divorce altogether, we can provide advice on how to defend the petition or how to submit your own divorce proceedings.

Decisions about children

Making arrangements for children is often the most contentious part of the divorce process. Decisions about where children are going to live, how much contact parents should be entitled to, and decisions about a child’s upbringing are common issues which can lead to disagreement.

We are dedicated to protecting your parental rights and ensuring all decisions are made with your children’s best interests at heart.

Divorce settlements

We are skilled at helping separating couples come to harmonious agreements which work for all parties involved.

Intervention by our skilled collaborative lawyers and trained mediators can often mean there is no need to attend court, even in the most challenging of circumstances.

We have specialist experience working with complex financial situations, such as High Net Worth individuals or where there are international assets involved.

Mediation

Mediation is a form of Alternative Dispute Resolution often used in divorce and family disputes to promote cooperation and compromise between separating spouses.

Our trained mediators can offer you professional family mediation in Clifton to help you and your ex-partner come to an amicable agreement which suits the whole family.

The process involves you and your ex-partner attending a series of meetings to discuss any matters or issues which need resolving in order to come to an agreement. The role of the mediator is not to provide advice, but to guide and enable discussion while swiftly defusing any potential conflict.

Mediation tends to be a productive and non-combative method of resolving common divorce issues. It can also be the least expensive option as coming to a voluntary agreement means there is no need for the court to judge your case.

Collaborative law

Like mediation, collaborative law is a method of Alternative Dispute Resolution designed to help separating couples come to voluntary divorce settlements without going through lengthy court proceedings.

You may choose collaborative law over mediation where you would prefer to have a lawyer present to advise you, such as where there are complex financial matters to discuss.

Our team includes experienced collaborative lawyers who can attend meetings with you, your ex-partner, and their collaborative lawyer to discuss the issues arising out of your divorce and to represent your best interests.
