Frequently Asked Questions
1. How long does a divorce take in the UK?
A divorce typically takes around 7-12 months, depending on the complexity of financial arrangements. Our team will ensure the process is handled as efficiently as possible.
2. What is a Special Guardianship Order?
A Special Guardianship Order (SGO) grants a carer parental responsibility for a child, offering a more permanent solution than a fostering arrangement but without severing legal ties with birth parents.
3. Do I have to go to court for child arrangements?
Not always. Many child arrangements can be settled through mediation or negotiation, but if an agreement cannot be reached, court proceedings may be necessary.
4. How can I protect my assets in a divorce?
A prenuptial or postnuptial agreement can help safeguard your assets. If you are already married and considering separation, we can advise on financial settlements to protect your interests.
5. What rights do unmarried couples have?
Unmarried couples do not have the same legal rights as married couples. A cohabitation agreement can provide legal protection regarding property, finances, and child arrangements.
6. Can I get legal aid for my family law case?
Legal aid is available for certain family law cases, such as those involving domestic abuse, child protection, or care proceedings. Eligibility is based on your financial situation and the specifics of your case. Contact us to discuss whether you qualify.
