Divorce and separation
Everything you need to understand and do to separate or get divorced, agree on child custody and residence issues, and agree a financial settlement.
Our advice guides will help you work out what to do and what to expect, reduce the stress, save you money, and help you get to a better place, sooner. We'll show you ways to reach agreement, and (if really necessary) how to go to court to get a financial order when you divorce or a child arrangements/ residence order.
We will also show you how to do it without a lawyer if you can't afford one, and how to make everything easier and ensure it is fair by getting just a little free or low-cost family legal advice if you can.
