Separation and Divorce
The end of a relationship or the breakup of a marriage can be a stressful time for all parties involves. You may be concerned about your current financial and property arrangements, and how this will affect any children you may have.
Fixed Fee Divorce advice with personal attendance by a trained lawyer
At FM&C, we are pleased to be able to offer a fixed fee package for straightforward undefended divorces for £600 plus VAT and court fees. Please note that in the event of exceptional difficulties such as the Respondent failing to co-operate in the divorce court process, it may be necessary to incur additional expense. We would advise about this in advance of incurring such expense.
Currently the Court fees are £550.00 for the issue of the petition.
The fair division of matrimonial assets is dealt with separately on an hourly rate.
Other fees
If your divorce is outside our fixed fee scope or if you require help in any other aspect such as advice concerning property, finances and children, charges are made with reference to the amount of time spent and work involved and you will be advised separately of the likely cost of such work.
Separation
You may be married but do not want to contemplate divorce at this stage, or you may be in a relationship but unmarried and still wish to resolve issues with a separating partner. In either case, we can advise you as to your legal rights and assist you in resolving issues arising from the separation.
