Divorce & Separation

Divorce and separation can be emotionally and financially challenging, and understanding the legal process can help you make more confident decisions. Whether you’re ending a marriage or separating from a partner, you may need to consider arrangements for children, property, finances, and long-term responsibilities. Each situation is different, and the steps you take at this stage can have a lasting impact. At Pre-Law, we offer fixed-fee support to help you understand the process, explore your options, and take the right approach for your circumstances.

Family / Divorce & Separation

How We Help

We provide clear, focused advice across all aspects of divorce and separation, including:

  • Understanding the Process – explaining how the no-fault divorce system works, or what to consider during an informal or formal separation.
  • Divorce Applications – guidance on completing and submitting a divorce application (individually or jointly), and managing timelines.
  • Separation Agreements – support with preparing agreements that set out financial and practical arrangements during or after a separation.
  • Financial Disclosure – helping you gather and present your financial information (e.g. Form E), including income, savings, pensions, and property.
  • Consent Orders & Settlements – advice on reaching and formalising a fair financial settlement, whether through negotiation or consent order.
  • Child Arrangements Overview – support around parenting plans, living arrangements, and understanding what the courts consider in family matters.
  • Next Steps & Practicalities – advice on updating your will, changing your name, or adjusting financial and living arrangements post-divorce.

Options We Advise On

Before or during a separation, it’s important to have a clear understanding of your overall position – financially and legally. Key areas to think about include:

  • Your financial picture – income, savings, debts, pensions, and jointly or solely owned property
  • Shared responsibilities – childcare, living arrangements, and any ongoing financial support
  • What a fair outcome might look like – and how best to approach this, whether independently or through a formal agreement

If you’re not sure where to start, we’ll help you understand your position and provide the support you need to take things forward.
