Yes, we provide a free 30-minute consultation via phone or video call.

Yes, most divorces do not require a court appearance unless there are disputes over finances or child arrangements. Our family law solicitors always explore alternative dispute resolution options (ADR) and we can help you resolve issues through negotiations.

You are not legally required to use a solicitor to get a divorce or separate, but it is strongly recommended—especially if there are children, property, or finances involved. A family law solicitor will ensure your rights are protected, handle complex legal paperwork and help negotiate a fair financial settlement. In many cases, assets such as property, savings, pensions, and business interests are included in the overall financial settlement—even if only one spouse was directly involved. Courts have wide discretion in deciding how these assets are divided, which is why early legal advice is crucial to protect your position.

On average, a divorce in London takes around 8–10 months to complete.
However, timescales can vary depending on whether both parties agree on the divorce, how quickly financial arrangements are resolved and court processing times. More complex cases, particularly those involving children or significant assets, may take longer.

In most cases, a business will be taken into account as part of the overall financial settlement. The value of a business—particularly if it has grown during the marriage—is usually treated as part of the matrimonial asset pool, alongside property, savings, and pensions, even if your spouse was not directly involved. Because every case is unique, specialist legal advice is essential to ensure your interests are protected.

Yes. Many divorces can be resolved amicably without the need for a contested court hearing.
