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 had the luxury of having Karen as my solicitor. She was amazing from beginning to end. Karen made me feel comfortable and at ease all of the time. No matter my questions, I never felt silly asking them. Karen would always respond in a respectful manner and would always respond and never leave me hanging.

Kiran Bains

Tagged solicitor Kiran Bains

Jenna Oglesby was always willing to take my phone calls when available to do so and reply to emails regarding a purchase that fell through at the last minute, then a purchase I made whilst renting that property. Going through separation and divorce with three young children, securing property has never been more important or more stressful than this last year or so. I felt in such safe hands with Jenna and reassurances she gave me all the way through a very long process. Thank you without end.

We have had contact with Alex and Zena in the preparation of our wills and Powers of Attorney and found both of them to be very friendly and approachable. They answered our questions fully and were very efficient in the preparation of our papers. They make you feel comfortable and are both very informative. Adam at the reception desk was also very friendly and helpful.

Merlene George

Tagged solicitor Merlene George

I had a 30-minute fixed-fee family consultation with Merlene online to discuss considerations around an amicable separation and divorce. Merlene was professional and helpful; she listened well and was calm and clear when explaining the process and legal considerations. She promptly followed up with attendance notes. I came away from the call feeling calmer, more informed and reassured as result.

Paul Moores

Tagged solicitor Paul Moores

We dealt with Paul Moores, who showed great professionalism from start to finish. Paul diligently explained the various options available for us with both the LPOA for Property and Financial Affairs, as well as for Health and Welfare. Paul also explained the process and guided us throughout each step. Paul was also in touch and extremely responsive, as and when required. We have no hesitation in highly recommending both Paul and the M&M team.
