Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a divorce take?

An uncontested divorce typically takes four to six months, largely due to court processing times. Where finances or children are involved, this can extend to six to twelve months. Getting specialist advice early can help avoid unnecessary delays.  

What am I entitled to on divorce?

Every case is different — a 50/50 split is the starting point, but the court considers a wide range of factors: the length of the marriage, each party's financial contributions, earning capacity, the needs of any children, and much more. Getting specialist advice early ensures you understand your realistic position before negotiations begin.

 

How do I protect myself financially in a divorce?

The first step is understanding how the court views the division of assets. In England and Wales, marriage is treated as a partnership — contributions inside and outside the home are given equal weight, making an equal split of agreed assets the starting point. From there, outcomes are shaped by the strength of your legal representation. Finding the right solicitor, as early as possible, is your most important move.

 

What if my spouse won't disclose their finances?

Full financial disclosure from both parties is a legal requirement throughout divorce proceedings. If your spouse refuses, you are entitled to make a formal financial application through the court, which will set a timetable for disclosure. Both parties must then complete a detailed financial statement (Form E). This is more common than you might think — and there are legal mechanisms to compel disclosure. Don't assume you're stuck.

 

What if I suspect my spouse is undervaluing their assets?

Both parties are required to provide full and frank financial disclosure. If you suspect your spouse is hiding or undervaluing assets, raise this with your solicitor immediately. We can investigate your concerns and, where necessary, bring in specialist valuers to establish accurate figures. Failure to disclose honestly carries serious financial penalties from the court.

 

Will I have to sell my house on divorce?

Not necessarily. The outcome depends on your specific circumstances, particularly the needs of any children and what other assets are available. Options can include one party buying the other out, delaying a sale until children leave home, or offsetting the property against other assets such as pensions. We'll help you understand which route is most realistic for your situation.
