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.

I went to Kidwells solicitors in Hereford and had a fantastic experience. Caitlin assisted me in a financial matter regarding my divorce. She was knowledgeable and with her help I was guided to a satisfactory outcome. Can’t praise Caitlin highly enough.

Michael Tucker

Tagged solicitor Michael Tucker

Where we were originally turned away by 3 solicitors, Michael gave us a voice. With great determination, has shown immense advocation for our cause. Extremely supportive, communicative, I have been kept informed of any progress and couldn't be any more thankful for the representation he offers. So glad I wasn't put off as I found the best solicitor to represent my need.

Chris TaylorZahra Nawaz

Tagged solicitors Chris Taylor and Zahra Nawaz

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Eaton Smith twice now, and both experiences have been fantastic. Chris assisted me with the EULA for my indie game, and his kindness, thoroughness, and incredibly fast email responses made the entire process seamless. Later, when I needed a solicitor for my prenup, I immediately turned to Chris, who connected me with Zahra. She was just as professional and kind, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. She even caught an error in our documents at 8 PM on a Friday and reached out immediately to help us fix it. Their level of attentiveness and professionalism is truly exceptional, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal services.

Sarah Abbotts

Tagged solicitor Sarah Abbotts

I instructed Sarah Abbotts of Beswicks Legal to represent me during a very acrimonious divorce from my former husband. From the very first meeting, Sarah was kind, understanding, and incredibly supportive, and she took the time to guide me through each stage of the process in a way that made everything feel far less overwhelming. Throughout the case, Sarah was always professional, thorough, and clearly very knowledgeable, but what stood out most was the genuine support she gave me during such a difficult time. At trial I secured a favourable outcome, and I do not believe I would have achieved the same result without Sarah representing me. Thank you, Sarah, you made an incredibly stressful and emotional period much easier to get through.
