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.

Andrea Bell

Tagged solicitor Andrea Bell

I instructed Hansells for the creation of a health and wealth POA for myself as they are the custodians of my Will. The person dealing with my POA was Andrea Bell who on my arrival put me at ease and was very approachable. During the process of filling in the forms I made a couple of mistakes and again Andrea corrected these for me which made the whole experience less stressful. In my opinion Andrea made an exceptional job of my POA.

Jacyn Richardson

Tagged solicitor Jacyn Richardson

Jacyn is an exceptional lawyer. She was the first person I contacted two years ago when I felt like my life was falling apart. From the start, she was professional yet very personable, and she made me feel truly understood. I knew I had someone by my side every step of the way, fighting my corner at a time when I really needed it most. After my case was over, I hoped I wouldn’t need her services again—but unfortunately, I did. When I contacted Jacyn the second time, she immediately remembered me and the details of my situation, even a year later. She was quick to get to work, listened patiently when my emotions ran high, and offered thoughtful, supportive advice. My childs best interest were always put first. I could not recommend anyone more highly. Should I ever need legal support again, I have no doubt that Jacyn will be my first point of call. I have not had much contact with Wace Morgan as a company as this second issue was short, however everyone has been friendly, polite and professional. I can’t fault Jacyn or anybody at this company

Paula Caldwell

Tagged solicitor Paula Caldwell

I needed a Consent Order done for my divorce and I was fully explained what the process involved. It was easy to understand, and if any further work was required it was a straightforward process and there was no hidden/unexpected costs at the end. I would use again for any other legal matters in the future.
