Our Divorce and Separation Services in Scotland

We advise clients on a wide range of family law matters, including:

• Divorce

• Separation agreements

• Financial settlements

• Child contact and residence

• Parental rights and responsibilities

• Division of matrimonial property

• Negotiation with a former partner or their solicitor

• Court proceedings where agreement cannot be reached

Every family situation is different. Some clients require a straightforward divorce where matters are agreed. Others need detailed advice about property, savings, pensions, debts, business interests or arrangements for children. We will take time to understand your circumstances and provide advice that is tailored to your position.

Divorce in Scotland

In Scotland, divorce is based on the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. This can usually be established by separation for the required period, adultery, or unreasonable behaviour.

If there are no children under 16 and no financial matters to resolve, a simplified divorce procedure may be available. Where there are children, financial claims, property issues or disputes between parties, the ordinary divorce procedure may be required.

We can advise you on which procedure is suitable, what documents are needed, and what steps should be taken before an application is made.

Separation Agreements

Many couples prefer to resolve matters by agreement rather than going to court. A separation agreement can record what has been agreed about property, money, debts, pensions, child arrangements and other practical matters.

A properly prepared separation agreement can provide certainty and reduce the risk of future disputes. We can help you negotiate, draft and finalise an agreement that reflects your circumstances and protects your interests.

Financial and Property Matters

Separation often raises difficult questions about the family home, mortgage payments, savings, pensions, debts, business assets and financial support.

We can help you understand your legal position and consider what a fair settlement may look like. Where possible, we aim to resolve matters by negotiation. Where agreement is not possible, we can advise on the court process and represent your interests.

Child Arrangements

When children are involved, their welfare is the most important consideration. We can advise on child contact, residence, parental rights and responsibilities, relocation concerns and disputes about important decisions affecting a child.

We approach these matters with care and sensitivity. Our aim is to help clients reach practical arrangements that work for the children and the family as a whole.
