Financial and Family Matters

Divorce proceedings can include Court Orders concerned with children, financial and property matters.

If both parties can agree on all relevant issues, then a judge may be asked to make orders without anybody having to attend Court. If these matters have not been agreed, then the judge will make an order after hearing what both parties and lawyers have to say.

A solicitor will advise on how much maintenance you may be entitled to, or have to pay, and on matters such as sharing pension benefits etc.
