Great experience speaking with Southgate solicitors, clear understanding and instructions given to set me on the right path with my divorce.Thank you very much you set my mind at ease knowing my case will be well looked after.
I feel safe. I could tell right away that Rajan is familiar with all the dirty tactics and ugliness that comes out during divorce and when the husband is the victim of abuse. Feel lucky to have representation like this.
Chloe Roadway has been a great help with dealing with my recent divorce. She answered all of my questions promptly and explained the whole process to me and generally put me at ease. Highly recommended!
I was able to take my time to express any questions, they were able to answer at the present time. I feel much better knowing and have read up on the firm, that this process will give me closure to a very difficult period. Many thanks.
I had Andriana as my family solicitor dealing with my divorce case. She has been so supportive throughout this journey of mine. Will definitely recommend Andriana for any family cases. Pleasure working with Andriana!
It was a shock for me at first with my divorce, I contacted Chloe from Southgate solicitors. Our first meeting was so reassuring and helpful. Everything I needed to know was said and explained to me. I knew what I had to do. Thank you
Divorce is daunting for anyone and stress+ costs associated with it took me a long time prior to making the right decision. I am extremely thankful for the support, advise and costs provided by Chloe Rodway.
I retained Chloe Rodway’s services and I cannot say enough good things about her. The rapport and guidance was outstanding at all times, prompt, timely and open for calls and quick updates. I highly recommend her for divorce cases.
They had been amazing throughout my divorce. Emails have been dealt with promptly and meetings were extremely productive. They offered honest and fair advice throughout the entire process. Thank you for everything.
As long as you have been married for at least 12 months and your marriage has irretrievably broken down, you will likely be entitled to apply for a divorce.
Our qualified divorce solicitors will always discuss with you reasons for the separation and the divorce process.
If you do not meet the requirements to pursue a divorce, our expert solicitors will explore other options such as annulment or judicial separation.
A no-fault divorce allows couples to dissolve their marriage without assigning blame, fostering a less contentious and more amicable separation process. This approach helps in minimizing emotional stress and encourages cooperative resolution on financial and parental arrangements.
Yes, our expertise extends to the complexities of international divorce, where different jurisdictions could impact the divorce outcome. We guide you in choosing the appropriate jurisdiction, considering where you and your spouse live or your national ties, to protect your interests.
An uncontested divorce usually takes between 6 – 9 months, minimum. However, it is always advisable to avoid obtaining the final order, which formally ends the marriage, until financial matters are agreed and approved by the court. This will likely lengthen the time to finalise the divorce.
Judicial separation allows couples to legally separate without ending their marriage. This can be beneficial for those who have personal, financial, or religious reasons for wanting to live apart without formally dissolving the marriage.
The court will issue your spouse’s divorce application and send you a copy along with an Acknowledgment of Service form for you to complete and return to the court.
The form is short and fairly straightforward. However, if you are unsure as to what you are signing or if you object to certain aspects of the application (e.g. a costs order), please do not hesitate to contact us to obtain advice from our expert divorce lawyers as to how best to complete the form.
Southgate Solicitors offers comprehensive support across all aspects of family law, including civil dissolution, divorce, international divorce, joint representation, judicial separation, and religious divorce. Our team provides expert legal advice, ensuring your rights are protected while facilitating a process that respects your personal circumstances and goals.
