How Our Family Lawyers Can Support You With Divorce In Marriage Or Civil Partnerships

When separating from your partner, whether you are married or otherwise, several matters require attention. The most pressing of these are the arrangements for children and financial matters. Whether you are married, cohabiting or in a civil partnership, it is important to know your rights should the relationship come to an end. Cohabiting couples need to know that they only have one year from the date of separation to make any financial claims. Regardless of the circumstances, early advice from experienced separation solicitors is crucial. We can provide you with advice regarding:

No-Fault Divorce Scotland

Our family lawyers are committed to empowering our clients with knowledge, especially when it comes to navigating sensitive legal matters like divorce.

In Scotland, divorces operate under a no-fault system, which means couples can seek divorce without assigning blame. Instead, the grounds for divorce revolve around the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage.

Beginning Divorce Proceedings

Couples can establish this breakdown through four key grounds: separation for one year with consent, separation for two years without consent, unreasonable behaviour, or adultery.

Understanding the process of obtaining a no-fault divorce is crucial, and at Jones Whyte, we emphasise the importance of establishing the date of separation, as it sets the timeline for divorce proceedings.

Financial Settlement – Divorce Law Services

We recently acted on behalf of a party who was awarded over £7 million when the other party had attempted to conceal matrimonial property. It is extremely important in situations where there is a question about secrecy and disclosure of matrimonial property that you instruct Solicitors who are experienced in tracing assets which have been hidden.

Our specialist team of divorce lawyers are well known for our innovative approach to finding the right solutions for our clients and we are dedicated to offering a superior level of client service and care.

Guiding You Through The Legal Process

They will be able to support you through this difficult time to get your desired outcome.

There are various ways of attempting to resolve matters with a former partner. Our experience tells us that most people prefer to minimise any contact with courts. Court action, although necessary on some occasions, is a last resort and can be costly and create animosity. We will focus on attempting to resolve your legal issues on separation by way of negotiation wherever possible.

Divorce Cost – Deferred Payment Options Available

We also appreciate that cost is a significant concern upon separation. We are the largest team of family law specialists in Glasgow and our success and growth has been built on ensuring that our fees are fair, reasonable and transparent.

Clients are provided with regular fee updates on their family law cases, certainly every month and often more regularly, and work is carried out and charges are set out transparently.

Supporting Children After Divorce Proceedings

Child Arrangements & Maintenance

Child maintenance fees will be arranged when you have separated to help cover the child’s living costs when you do not live with the child. Please note that even if you do not live with your child, and even if you don’t see them, you are still responsible for the cost of raising them.

Arranging child maintenance can be done between both parties (that’s if they both agree), or through the Child Maintenance Service. It is advisable to seek guidance from a separation solicitor to help you with separation matters and to provide you with essential advice during the process.

Separation Agreement

A separation agreement, formally called a Minute of Agreement, is a legal document or contract between parties who have separated. By entering into separation agreements, this allows parties to avoid court proceedings to determine monetary issues.

A Minute of Agreement is formally registered at the Registers of Scotland in Edinburgh. and, after that has been done carries the same force as a court order and can be enforced similarly. Seeking advice from a separation solicitor is recommended, especially in cases where one party has a more favourable financial situation or if the separation is acrimonious. A solicitor can provide guidance on relevant considerations and the division of matrimonial property.

Questions you might have

We have various fixed fee packages for our legal costs. If you would like to find out more please get in touch today by calling 0141 674 4357 or fill out or contact form above.
