How do I end my civil partnership?

You can apply to end your civil partnership if you’ve been in the partnership for over a year.  

If you do not wish to end the civil partnership, you can instead get a legal separation; this can be applied for during the first year of your civil partnership.   

Dissolving your Civil Partnership

Although marriages and civil partnerships are different, the breakdown of these relationships can be just as disheartening and confusing to navigate.

The dissolution of civil partnerships takes place through the courts and can be just as difficult as going through a divorce.

Therefore, at Perduco Law, we have made it our mission to be by your side. We will defend your rights and entitlements, ensure a positive resolution for your case, and avoid the stresses and hidden costs that you could face if you chose a traditional law firm to represent you.

How much will it cost?

The cost of a divorce varies depending on whether there are any marital assets and if an agreement on those assets can be reached without the need for court proceedings.

What if children are involved?

Where children are involved, the best solution is for the parties to reach an amicable agreement between them on the child arrangements post divorce. If this isn’t possible, we can assist you in obtaining a Child Arrangements Order.

What if there is domestic violence in the marriage?

Where there is domestic abuse/violence in the marriage, there is a range of protective orders we can obtain for you in the family court, including:

Non Molestation Orders

Occupation Orders

What will my Solicitor do on my behalf?

Essentially, your solicitor will do everything involving both the divorce and financial settlement on your behalf, including

Advising you on your legal position and the best way forward.
Drafting all legal documentation
Liaising with the court and your ex-partner or their legal representative
Finalising your divorce and financial settlement

What will I have to do?

You will need to approve the documentation before it’s sent out and provide us with instructions following our advice.

You may also need to provide us with supporting documents such as marriage certificates and financial disclosure documents, e.g., bank and mortgage statements.

What does fixed fee mean?

Fixed Fees means that we tell you your exact costs before you instruct us and detail the work we are going to do for that fixed fee. This enables you to know your costs in advance with no nasty surprises.

What's the difference between fixed fees and hourly rates?

Nearly all family law firms charge on an hourly rate structure, which means everything they do on your case, whether it’s progressing your case or not, is chargeable in 6 minute units, so with hourly rates of £200-£450 per hour, these costs can quickly become disproportionate.

For personalised legal assistance

Perduco Law will provide expert advice and case management for a fixed fee.
