Whether you want to start the divorce process, respond to one, or simply understand your rights before deciding, we’re here to help.

How does divorce work now?

Since April 2022, England and Wales use a no-fault divorce system. This means you no longer have to blame your husband or wife or give a reason for the breakdown — you simply confirm that the marriage has broken down irretrievably. You can apply on your own or jointly with your spouse.

Application

made online, on your own or together.

20-week wait

a reflection period before the next step

Conditional order

confirmation that you're entitled to divorce.

6-week wait

a further short waiting period.

Final order

this legally ends the marriage.

From start to finish, a divorce usually takes a minimum of around 26 weeks. You must normally have been married for at least one year before you can apply.

Divorce doesn't automatically sort out money or children

This is the most important thing many people don’t realise: the divorce itself only ends the marriage. It does not divide your finances or decide arrangements for your children — those are separate legal matters.

To make a financial agreement legally binding, you need a consent order approved by the court. Without one, your ex could make a financial claim against you in future, even years later. We make sure your divorce and your financial settlement are dealt with properly together.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a reason to get divorced?

How long does a divorce take?

How much does a divorce cost?

There is a court fee set by GOV.UK, plus legal fees. We offer fixed-fee options for the divorce process and give you a clear breakdown at the first meeting, so there are no surprises.

Can I get divorced without going to court?

Usually yes. The divorce is an online process that rarely needs a hearing. You'd only go to court if there's a dispute about finances or children that can't be resolved by agreement or mediation.

Does the divorce also sort out money and the children?

No — those are separate. The divorce only ends the marriage. To make a financial agreement binding you need a consent order, and arrangements for children are dealt with separately. We handle these together for you.

Can my spouse and I use the same solicitor?

You can make a joint application, but one solicitor can't give both of you legal advice as your interests may differ. We can advise you while keeping the process as amicable as possible.

Do you have divorce solicitors who speak Urdu, Punjabi, Hindi or Bengali?

Yes — we can advise you in English, Urdu, Punjabi, Hindi and Bengali, in person or over the phone.
