Divorce Solicitors in Leeds

Divorce is a legal process which ends your marriage. Our award-winning team of family law solicitors have been offering expert divorce legal advice, guidance and solutions since 1987.

You may be experiencing relationship difficulties and feel your relationship has broken down. You may not know what your options are and might need to make sense of your situation from a legal and practical perspective.

Divorce is difficult, but having the right people by your side can make the process easier. Our team of specialist family lawyers are with you throughout.

We offer a specialised, constructive and sensitive approach to ensure the very best possible solution or settlement for your particular circumstances.

Expert legal advice and support for divorce proceedings

Most divorces are not contested, and involve a series of documents which are sent to court for a judge to consider without any hearing taking place. However, if you have disagreements involving your finances or children and separate proceedings have started, then you may have to attend court hearings to resolve these issues.

Our primary aim is to get the right outcome for your circumstances. We adopt an empathetic approach, seeing each divorce case as a unique and highly personal situation. Recognised by The Legal 500, our Leeds-based divorce solicitors have vast experience advising on all manner of divorce-related issues, including international cases.

• Child issues — Children can be affected in all sorts of ways when their parents separate. We approach all divorce cases sensibly and with sensitivity, offering practical and constructive guidance throughout.
• Finance and assets — Expert guidance on your financial rights and responsibilities. Who will live in the family home? How will assets be divided? What about pensions? Divorce can bring about many financial questions.
• International divorce — Our specialist solicitors can help you navigate the potentially complex waters of international divorce. Enforceability of orders relating to children, money and property orders can be challenging.

Whilst the divorce process can be relatively straightforward, it is vitally important that you obtain expert legal advice about your individual situation, especially if it involves finances and children.

We will advise and guide you through all stages of your divorce. Whichever route you choose, we have the expertise and experience to deliver the best outcome for you.
