Expert Divorce Guidance

At WideBorder Immigration, we provide comprehensive support to guide you through the divorce process, financial arrangements, and any issues pertaining to your children.

Divorce Grounds and Process

In England and Wales, the sole ground for divorce is irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. With the introduction of “no-fault” divorce in April 2022, the applicant only needs to confirm within their application that the marriage has irretrievably broken down, without providing supporting evidence.

Joint Applications

Spouses can now make a joint application for divorce, mutually affirming the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage.

Mechanics of Divorce

Obtaining a divorce is typically straightforward, often conducted via an online court portal. Challenges may arise concerning practical matters such as timing and manner of separation, child arrangements, and financial settlements.

Dispelling Myths

Contrary to popular belief, obtaining a “quickie” divorce is a myth. It usually takes a minimum of 6 months to finalize a divorce, with potential delays to resolve financial matters. We provide guidance on the process, timescales, and associated costs, ensuring clarity and support throughout.

At WideBorder Immigration, our experienced team is dedicated to navigating you through the divorce process with sensitivity, efficiency, and expertise. Contact us today to learn more about how we can assist you during this challenging time.
