Common Questions About Divorce in the UK

How long does a divorce take in the UK?

The legal process for the divorce itself typically takes between 6 to 8 months. However, finalising the financial settlement can often take longer. The full divorce timeline depends on how quickly you and your ex-partner can reach an agreement.

What is a 'no-fault' divorce?

As of April 2022, you no longer need to blame one person to get divorced in the UK. The new 'no-fault' system simply requires one or both parties to state that the marriage has broken down irretrievably. This is designed to reduce conflict between separating couples.

How are assets divided in a UK divorce?

The starting point is a 50/50 split of all matrimonial assets, but the court will adjust this based on factors like the needs of any children, earning capacity, and the length of the marriage to achieve a fair outcome. A solicitor can advise on your specific entitlements.
