Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Divorce Timeline, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

Sara Rutter

Tagged solicitor Sara Rutter

When I met Sara Rutter, I was in a complete mess with my divorce. Sara listened to everything my children and I had been through, talked me through the process and has been there for us every step of the way. My circumstances have not been the easiest and yet, Sara has acted professionally throughout and has achieved a positive outcome for my boys and I. I honestly can’t thank her enough. I would recommend Sara Rutter to anyone.

Beresford Kennedy

Tagged solicitor Beresford Kennedy

I had a very positive experience overall. My solicitor was extremely responsive, approachable and efficient throughout the process of counselling me on my prenuptial agreement. Communication was excellent, and I always felt that questions were dealt with promptly and clearly in most situations. Remarkably easy to understand and relatable. I would definitely recommend to friends.

Tagged solicitor Christopher Wall

I used Christopher to assist with completing my financial consent order and finalising my divorce. Communication was clear, accurate and very prompt. Christopher and his team have a wealth of knowledge and dealt with every part of the process for me with no issues I would not hesitate to recommend Paul Robinson in the future. Thankyou for you professional assistance.

Ian Brunt

Tagged solicitor Ian Brunt

I worked with Ian regarding an Adoption case. I am an Advocate and I was the Litigation Friend for Dad. Ian was fantastic with the person I was supporting. Ian took time to explain to Dad, in great, simplistic language, what was happening, what Dad's rights where, and how I could help, and Ian could help too. Myself and Ian had a wonderful working relationship, ensuring the best possible outcome for Dad, working in joint partnership. Ian took great steps to explain in clear and honest communication what Dad's rights were, even in what was a very difficult case. Ian was knowledgeable, professional, responsive and always had a friendly smile to greet us. I would use Ian again and would recommend him to the colleagues in my organisation.

Working with Heather was a very easy process and made a difficult life situation much more manageable over the many months that it extended. Heather listened carefully and made useful observations and very clear suggestions on the way to proceed.

Ajantha Brabaharan

Tagged solicitor Ajantha Brabaharan

Ajantha handled my FLR(M) application as an unmarried partner, and from the moment she took it on she went through everything with me point by point. Nothing was assumed and nothing was left for me to guess at. Every time I contacted her she came back quickly, and the answers were never generic. I have dealt with a lot of lawyers in the US and in Korea over the years, and what stood out here was that she responded to my actual situation rather than reciting the rules back at me. When something was unclear she told me what it meant for me specifically. There were several points where the online system threw errors, and more than a few where the problem was simply my own mistake. I know I made her job harder than it needed to be. She never once let it show. She stayed calm, told me what to do next, and made sure I did not panic about any of it. On more than one occasion she was still helping me well outside office hours. When the decision came through she let me know straight away, before anyone else, and she sounded as pleased about it as I was. That is not something I expected from a solicitor, and after months of waiting it meant a great deal. English is not my first language and immigration rules are hard to follow even in plain English. Ajantha made the whole thing manageable. I will be applying for an extension in a few years and I would not consider going to anyone else. Sincere thank you for everything, Ajantha.
