If both spouses agree on how every asset, including property and pensions, is to be divided, then there may be no need to hire a solicitor other than to have a straightforward consent order written up to make the financial settlement legally binding. Unfortunately, more often than not, divorce is rarely this simple, often requiring both parties to deal with complex issues such as child arrangements and the distribution of high-value assets. Therefore, the help of a legal professional, someone with years of experience dealing with divorce, is highly recommended.<\/p>\n<p>Hiring the right lawyer is often key to the process running smoothly (or, at least, as smoothly as it can), and if you&#8217;re looking for exceptional legal advice and support, the capital is a great place to start your search.<\/p>\n<p>London is home to many of the best divorce solicitors in the UK, and Simply.Law makes it easy to find the one most suited to your case.<\/p>\n<h2>Experienced divorce solicitors in London for all clients<\/h2>\n<p>The London divorce solicitors and family lawyers that can be found on Simply.Law are among the most experienced practitioners in their field.

It&#8217;s common for divorces to have a multitude of issues needing to be addressed that require the help of a legal professional. The following are just a few examples:<\/p>\n<p><b>Jurisdiction issues<\/b> \u2013 Complications may occur if the parties seeking divorce are in different jurisdictions. It may be that one spouse has moved out of the country, one partner is the citizen of another country, or both spouses are domiciled abroad but still want to get divorced in England. Whether a couple is allowed to start proceedings in England and Wales will depend on how strong their connections are to the country. There are a number of factors to take into account, and there is no one simple answer, so it&#8217;s wise to receive specialist advice early on so you understand your rights in each country and where you can begin proceedings.<\/p>\n<p><b>Spousal maintenance<\/b> \u2013This is when one spouse has to make regular payments to their former spouse to financially support them, which is usually the case when one spouse has been financially dependent on the other for the duration of the marriage. The Court will decide on how much should be paid and for how long. An Simply.Law member divorce solicitor in London can help make sure that any payments are fair to both parties and settle any spousal maintenance disputes.<\/p>\n<p><b>High-value marital assets<\/b> \u2013 For a divorcing couple to decide upon a financial settlement isn\u2019t always easy, particularly when the separation is not an amicable one, or if the assets involved are of high value. For instance, an estate could require the division of property, pensions and savings, and expensive pieces of art or antiques. Again, many different factors are considered when deciding on what is a fair financial settlement \u2013 a 50:50 division may not always be fair to all parties involved \u2013 and a divorce solicitor can help ensure you receive the best possible division of assets.<\/p>\n<p>There are plenty of other issues in addition to the above that could apply to your case, and every divorce is different. Your circumstances are very individual to you, which makes finding the perfect solicitor, who is capable of dealing with every aspect of your case effectively, so important and is why Simply.Law\u2019s system of matching clients with the most suitable legal practitioner in London is so beneficial.<\/p>\n<h2>Get in touch with a divorce solicitor in London today<\/h2>\n<p>While it\u2019s not always necessary to hire a divorce lawyer, it is clear that there are many instances where a solicitor can be an essential part of the process.
