Top 10 of 4,159 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.

Rebecca Gardiner

Tagged solicitor Rebecca Gardiner

Rebecca made a difficult situation easier through her fair, honest and friendly approach. I felt I had a strong and supportive advisor in my corner as my wife and I worked through an amicable divorce settlement. I was tested on a few occasions and Rebecca's wisdom and firm advice (at times) held me to account so I, as did my wife receive a fair split based on our different situations. Rebecca was always quick to respond and went above and beyond with follow-up points when finalising my case..

Katy Taylor

Tagged solicitor Katy Taylor

The service was excellent. The Power of attorney came through without any hitches. We were informed from the start about the pedestrian pace of the wheels of officialdom, and received updates at every stage of the process.
