I’m getting a divorce – what do I need to think about?

Going through a divorce can be a difficult and stressful time for all parties involved. Emotions are usually running high and sometimes it can be difficult to have discussions with your spouse about how you will share the childcare or who is entitled to what with regards to your finances.

It may be possible for you and your spouse to sort out the divorce between yourselves and reach conclusions you are both happy with. However, the more complex your assets and investments are, the less likely that this will be the case.

Even if you do feel you could sort it out between yourselves, it is always best to get the advice of an independent solicitor to make sure that you haven’t missed anything.

It’s also worth noting that although it makes no difference in English and Welsh law who files for the divorce, this is not the case in other jurisdictions.
