Living apart covers the practical and legal consequences when couples or partners no longer live together but have not necessarily separated formally. It includes finances, property, housing, and arrangements for any children, for example how to divide assets, ongoing mortgage or tenancy issues, and practical support. A solicitor in this area helps draft or negotiate separation agreements or consent orders, advises on applications to resolve disputes, and coordinates with any relevant guardians or child services. They may assist with disclosures, negotiating maintenance, and planning for future arrangements if the relationship ends formally.
The moment a separation decision progresses to property, money, or child arrangements, there are time-sensitive steps and irreversible choices. A solicitor protects your position by guiding you through the relevant forms, deadlines, and court-backed orders under the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 and the Children Act 1989, ensures proper disclosure of finances, and maintains clear records and communications.

Pragmatic but essential guidance through divorce proceedings. It was very important to both of us that we didn't fall out and make a bad situation worse, and Nicola worked with me and my now ex-wife's solicitor to ensure that any queries or potentially contentious issues were quickly and positively closed down. The orders were proposed and agreed promptly and the whole exercise was as painless as it could be in the circumstances.
