The Process of Divorce

Divorce is not a common occurrence for most people; therefore, it’s often not well known what’s involved in the process and that you don’t actually need to use a lawyer. If your relationship has come to an end, its essential that you agree the divide of money, assets, property and of course co-parenting if children are involved. At south West Chambers we are here to help you with fast, fair and fixed pricing.

We will separate your communication and discussions upon emotional matters by using lower rate paralegals and councillors

Divorce can be an expensive and draining process, especially if both parties are not amicable and are both paying for separate divorce lawyers. This can add up to around £8,000 each, which is money that could be spent on your family instead.


By using a solicitor it forces communication to become very factual and does not always consider the other spouses’ feelings in mind which may cause acrimonious tensions. This use of defence also creates a harsher divide between the couple post-divorce which is not pleasant for co-parenting.


Most divorce cases actually require much legal advice in a straightforward divorce case, and it is typically clerical and administrative. Most of the information can also be gathered for free by each party and the paperwork can be completed by yourself if preferable.


Finally, the process of using a solicitor can be painfully slow and drag on longer than needed incurring more and more costs for simple correspondence. Remember each email sent they will charge a fixed amount for and then have to wait for a reply. This also allows room for miscommunication and would be more efficient person to person to avoid this lengthy and costly process. The average time it takes to settle a divorce is around 14.5 months.
