What is the difference between divorce and civil partnership dissolution? Both processes legally end a relationship. Dissolution is specific to civil partnerships, while divorce applies to marriage. The legal grounds and procedures are similar.
How long does the dissolution process take? The average timeline is four to six months, depending on individual circumstances such as financial arrangements or childcare considerations.
Do both parties need to agree to the dissolution? While mutual agreement ensures a smoother process, it is possible to proceed if only one partner initiates the application. We can guide you through either scenario.
What are the costs involved? Initial consultations are offered at a fixed rate. Costs for the full process vary depending on the level of support required. We always provide transparent cost estimates upfront.
Will I need to attend court? Most dissolutions are settled without court hearings, especially where there is agreement on practical arrangements. However, we are fully prepared to represent you if needed.
Can financial matters and childcare be arranged as part of the dissolution? Yes, financial settlements and arrangements for children are integral parts of our service. We ensure these issues are addressed with sensitivity and legal precision.
