Issuing divorce proceedings can be a distressing time and it may take some time to reach a decision that the marriage is at an end, even if the marriage has been unhappy for many years.
It is our job to not automatically assume that our client wants a divorce. A client often wants to see a solicitor at a first meeting simply to highlight the issues within the marriage and discuss possible options for the future, which may include:
- Reconciliation.
- Counselling (marriage or family counselling).
- A parenting agreement.
- Parenting classes.
- Anger management classes.
- Therapy for addiction.
- Separation
- on an informal basis;
- supported by a separation agreement drafted by solicitors; or
- formally through judicial separation.
- Entering into a post-nuptial agreement to formalise the financial arrangements between the parties which may make a party feel more financially secure in the relationship
