Four Steps of Divorce

Step 1 - Application For Divorce

To get a divorce in England and Wales, you need to show that you have been married for more than a year and that the marriage has "irretrievably broken down". To do this you need to establish that you have grounds for divorce based on one of the following:

Adultery. Your spouse has committed adultery and you find it intolerable to live together.
Unreasonable Behaviour. Your spouse has behaved in such a way that you cannot reasonably be expected to live together.
Two-Year Separation With Consent. You have been separated for 2 years and your spouse agrees to divorce.
Five-Year Separation. You have been separated for 5 years.
Desertion. Your spouse deserted you more than 2 years ago. We strongly recommend that desertion is avoided. If you want to base your divorce on desertion you may require a managed divorce.

Depending on which option you choose, we will provide you with all the necessary documentation and guidance required to complete your Divorce Application quickly, easily, and with a minimum of stress and discomfort...
