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.

Professional, good communication and knowledge. Not frightened to have difficult conversations but at same time listening to my needs. Met my expectations, she was professional but showed empathy at difficult times but stayed focused on resolutions and communicating clearly and in a timely manner.

Melanie Bridgen

Tagged solicitor Melanie Bridgen

I contacted Melanie Bridgen from Nelsons Solicitors in Derby for advice in child arrangement. Her knowledge was more than I could ask for. She helped me through every concern I had and with her colleague Melanie Theakstone put together my wishes, contacted my ex, made sure that everything I legally wanted it was written down as clear for the court application as possible. They followed my case through CAFCASS and the final court order. Mrs. Bridgen had straight questions, and answers to everything. They took the process of my shoulder, and in 2 months I have received the final order from court (with Christmas included). I cannot be more thankful for their job and knowledge.

Emma was professional, easy to understand and knowledgeable. The office in Epworth is just a counter, not very inviting. The whole process was easy

I was fortunate enough to have Zubair Dharamsi as my lawyer. He was extremely supportive throughout my sometimes distressing and very frustrating case. Zubair was very professional yet empathic also to my situation. I cannot thank him enough for all his time and effort in helping me get the outcome I wanted. I will be forever grateful. Thank you Zubair and thank you Rose & Rose.
