Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

The Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020 introduces no‑fault divorce for England and Wales. It means a marriage or civil partnership can end without proving fault, focusing on the couple’s decision to separate and their arrangements for children and finances. A solicitor helps you apply for dissolution, whether jointly or disputed, and guides you through steps from petition to final order, including notifying the other party, completing forms, and liaising with the court. The process is shaped by the need to secure a fair financial settlement and orderly parenting arrangements.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The act fixes important steps and deadlines that affect a client’s position, such as the move from petition to decree nisi and then to the final order, with emphasis on timely, orderly resolution. A solicitor provides guidance on filing, documentary disclosure, and ensuring the court considers sensitive matters like children and financial settlements within the lawful framework and deadlines.

Karen Moores

Tagged solicitor Karen Moores

I had an excellent experience working with Karen, during what was on a personal level a very stressful and emotional time for me. From the outset, she was professional, approachable, and genuinely empathetic to my situation. Karen took the time to explain every step of the process in clear, straightforward terms, which helped me feel more confident and in control. Communication was consistent and responsive—I was kept informed throughout, and any questions I had were answered promptly and thoroughly. Her attention to detail and strong knowledge of family law were evident, and I always felt that my best interests were being carefully represented. What stood out most was Karen’s balanced approach, she was both compassionate and pragmatic, helping to resolve matters efficiently while still ensuring a fair outcome. I would highly recommend this solicitor to anyone needing support with divorce or family-related legal matters.

Alice Brett

Tagged solicitor Alice Brett

Alice and her team have been absolutely amazing in the support that they have given me. I was finding things very difficult and did not understand the process of my divorce or the information provided by my ex husbands solicitor. Alice was able to explain this in a way I could understand and make me feel calmer. She was able to help me see that there were loop holes in my documentation from my mediator, which could have left me vulnerable. I am very grateful for her kindness, support and patience.

Gillian LavelleLeah Hussain

Tagged solicitors Gillian Lavelle and Leah Hussain

I enquired with MBH back in October 2024 following a very difficult divorce, after having spoken to a number of other firms, I hadn't felt my voice had been heard. I got in touch with Gillian at MBH and she was a breath of fresh air, giving me hope that I was going to be able to come out with a better result than any other firm had envisioned. Gillian and Leah both represented me, they were always very professional, informative, honest, and provided the best service with a personal touch, too. I do not know what I would have done without their help, I would highly recommend MBH to anybody navigating a divorce.

Pernilla Finnila

This is the second time I have had occasion to use Pernilla on family matters. On both occasions her advice has been excellent, and whilst I truly hope I don't have to instruct her in formal proceedings I will have no hesitation in doing so if this matter does end in court again.
