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.

Rachael Scowcroft

Tagged solicitor Rachael Scowcroft

Rachel was amazing during my divorce, which involved an out-of-court settlement and financial separation. I had no idea how to handle any of it, but she explained everything clearly and made sure I was fully protected. She was always available when I needed support and made a stressful situation much easier to deal with. Very supportive, informative, and professional. Highly recommend
