Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Divorce Petition Grounds, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers the grounds on which a divorce petition can be based in England, typically framed as irretrievable breakdown supported by one of five facts: adultery, unreasonable behaviour, desertion, two years’ separation with the other party’s consent, or five years’ separation without consent. A solicitor helps draft and advance the petition, prepare and respond to evidence, liaise with the court, identify appropriate financial relief and arrange arrangements for children. The process hinges on the factual basis chosen and the timing of steps in court proceedings.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor drafts the petition, gathers supporting evidence or corroboration, serves papers on the respondent, and manages any responsive defenses. They may advise on whether to pursue separation with consent or a longer separation, prepare statements of arrangements for money and children, and navigate court directions, interim orders, and eventual decree. They also handle communications with the Family Court and, if needed, mediation or contested steps.

Michael Hicks

Tagged solicitor Michael Hicks

My overall experience with Michael Hicks has been extremely positive. He took over my case after my previous solicitor retired. At first, I was a little concerned about whether my case would receive the same level of attention, as I was not originally his client. However, those concerns quickly disappeared. Michael was professional, polite, and highly responsive throughout the process. He took the time to understand my case, kept me well informed, and provided honest, practical, and effective advice that gave me confidence every step of the way. I truly appreciate his dedication and support, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy solicitor. I wish Michael every success in the future. Thank you for all your help.

I found Nicola to be very helpful and very easy to talk to. She helped me navigate the various challenges in my divorce proceedings in a sympathetic and informative way. She always explained each stage of the process in layman's terms which helped greatly with my decision making. I would be happy to recommend her services to any prospective clients.
