Divorce Solicitors

Divorce Solicitors at Wansbroughs

Deciding to divorce from your spouse or dissolve your civil partnership is a significant step. At Wansbroughs, our experienced divorce solicitors understand that this can be a stressful and emotional process, particularly when children or finances are involved. Clear legal guidance you can trust is essential, and our dedicated team of solicitors for divorce are here to support you every step of the way.

The process

Since the introduction of no-fault divorce in April 2022, it is no longer necessary to assign blame to your spouse to begin divorce or dissolution proceedings. The only requirement is that you provide a statement that the marriage or civil partnership has irretrievably broken down.

You can apply for a divorce or dissolution as an individual, or jointly with your spouse. You must have been married for at least one year and have a permanent connection to England and Wales. There are several stages to proceedings, which our divorce solicitors will guide you through with clear, practical advice.

It is important that you are aware that finalising a divorce or dissolution does not automatically resolve arrangements for children or division of finances. These matters need to be dealt with separately to protect your interests, something our team of solicitors for divorce can assist with as part of our comprehensive service.

Our approach

As members of Resolution, Wansbroughs’ team of great divorce solicitors are committed to resolving family matters in a constructive and non-confrontational way wherever possible. We believe that, with the right legal and emotional support, it is possible to separate from your spouse or civil partner with dignity and respect.

We recognise that every situation is unique. That’s why we take the time to understand your personal circumstances, concerns, and priorities. This approach helps preserve relationships (especially where you and your spouse or civil partner also co-parent) and avoids unnecessary stress or legal costs.

Besides our Great Divorce solicitors, we can put you in touch with divorce coaches, therapists, or counsellors to support you through this time, if this would benefit you.
