What is involved in Divorce Proceedings?
At Farleys Solicitors, our Burnley-based divorce solicitors work to make the process as simple as possible, helping you to minimise stress and conflict and work towards a happier future. To do this, we follow a simple yet effective approach.
Step 1 – Initial Consultation and Strategy
First of all, we’ll conduct an initial consultation. This is essential for providing vital insight into your case, enabling you to communicate your goals so that we can develop a unique strategy.
Step 2 – Financial Disclosure and Asset Assessment
Next, our expert team of solicitors will collect financial details from both you and your spouse, including documentation concerning assets and income sources. This enables us to secure a fair settlement on your behalf.
Step 3 – Child Welfare Planning
We appreciate that having children adds a further layer of complexity to divorce proceedings, and we always work to secure an outcome for your child that ensures their happiness and safety. Many of our divorce solicitors are members of the Law Society Children Panel, and we’re proud to be a safe pair of hands to protect your child’s best interests.
Step 4 – Settlement Negotiation
Now, our team of solicitors will expertly negotiate with your spouse’s legal representation, working to resolve matters like finances and property. Amicable settlement and negotiation are always worth exploring if suitable, and in many cases, we are able to reach a resolution that works for you and your family.
Step 5 – Court Proceedings or Final Agreements
In cases where negotiation and mediation have been unsuccessful or deemed unsuitable, court proceedings are inevitable. Our team will provide clarity, support and expert representation at every stage.
