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.

Sarah Lewis

Tagged solicitor Sarah Lewis

Sarah Lewis acted for us on the sale of our property. Professional approach in a frustrating process with unnecessary delays caused by our buyers solicitors. Good legal knowledge providing sensible advice. I found the team extremely courteous and keen to assist, particularly the support team (Wendy and Marie).

Tagged solicitor Rebecca Hope

Top service, made my process as painless as it can be, with little to no stress. Quick to reply to any emails or problems. Not living local to MCT Solicitors made no difference to my level of service.
