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.

Molly Guest

Tagged solicitor Molly Guest

I sought initial advice from Molly regarding the start of my divorce proceedings and couldn’t be more impressed. She was able to break down the legal jargon in to plain English and gave me a very clear roadmap of what to expect at each stage. She gave me a calm and compassionate environment to talk in from the moment we spoke. She listened intently to my concerns and provided practical, sensitive advice with out making me free rushed or pressured. I felt Molly genuinely cared about me, my well-being and my situation as much as the preferred legal outcomes.

Katrina Whyard

Tagged solicitor Katrina Whyard

Katrina was (and is) fantastic. She came highly recommended from my mortgage broker – I can see why, now – and did wonders. I had quite a tight deadline for a divorce-mandated transfer of property and remortgage, for quite a complex little right-to-manage flat in London, and she was thorough, persistent and highly communicative throughout. She pulled out all the stops and couldn’t have been more helpful and collaborative. I got a much better service than I ever expected and would recommend Katrina unreservedly!
