No-fault divorce lets a couple end a marriage without proving fault, using a joint petition or a sole petition based on irretrievable breakdown. A solicitor prepares and advances the divorce petition under the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020, coordinates service, and handles financial and child arrangements alongside the proceeding. They gather and verify required documents, liaise with the court, and ensure deadlines are met for the decree nisi and decree absolute, while safeguarding the client’s interests throughout the process.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The process focuses on a decisive, time-bound stage: obtaining decree nisi and, later, decree absolute. A solicitor's input ensures correct form completion, orderly disclosure of assets, and clear communication with the court and other party, reducing risk of delay or default; they help secure a lawful and enforceable end to the marriage and support arrangements for any dependent children.
