This work covers the timeline of a divorce in England. It starts with submitting a divorce petition, then obtaining a conditional order (decree nisi) and finally the final order (decree absolute), while coordinating with any financial settlements or arrangements for children. A solicitor drafts or reviews the petition, applications for court orders, and any accompanying or related applications, and helps gather necessary documents and evidence. The timetable is shaped by court procedures and deadlines set by statute and guidance.

Where a solicitor protects your position

Key moments include the filing of the petition, service, the grant of a decree nisi and subsequent decree absolute, and any associated financial orders or plans for children. A solicitor ensures deadlines are met, evidence is prepared, and any disputes are managed through mediation or court process where needed, protecting ongoing rights and arrangements for each party.
