The legal process explained
It’s important to remember that divorce is a two-step legal process:
-
Divorce/Dissolution Application: This formally ends the marriage or dissolves the civil partnership.
-
Financial Remedy Application: This determines the division of assets, income, and pensions between you and your spouse or civil partner.
While it’s possible to handle your own divorce application, financial claims between spouses do not automatically end when the marriage or civil partnership is dissolved. For this reason, even in uncontested divorces, we recommend consulting our teamto ensure that any financial agreements are properly formalised into a court order.
At Beckett Solicitors, we have over 30 years eof xperience advising and representing clients in divorce proceedings and can assist you with children and family protection orders should you require them.
Nadia and Kirsty are Resolution members and follow the Resolution code of conduct in all family disputes.


Stage 1
Divorce/Dissolution proceedings
The first stage of the process is the divorce/dissolution proceedings, which formally end the marriage or civil partnership. This stage includes everything from the initial application through to the final order, which legally brings the marriage or civil partnership to an end. On average, divorce/dissolution proceedings take around six months to complete, and the online process is simple enough to handle yourself if you choose.
