Approaches

Most divorces throw up a range of issues.

  • Who divorces who – and when – and how?
  • What happens to the home?
  • Will maintenance have to be paid – for how long?
  • How are the savings and pensions shared out?
What is the best way to sort all this out? Much will depend upon how you and your spouse want to approach it. Can you sort it out together, in a constructive way, or is there so little trust that the courts have to be involved?
If you have no money and no children, you may not need as much professional help. We recommend you see a solicitor at least once to help you understand your rights and to check if you are missing anything.

If any of the questions above apply to you, you will certainly need legal advice whatever approach you take.
