Divorce & Separation


Divorce Lawyers Hampshire

The last thing you need when you are coping with matrimonial breakdown is a mass of legal paperwork and the seemingly unending contentious details.

Our experts can Take the Burden from your Shoulders and provide specialist help on all aspects of a relationship break-up, from financial payments and property division to custody and access issues regarding the children, through to pension requirements and outstanding debts.

At Gray Purdue Solicitors our years of expertise have earned us an acute insight and understanding of divorce law and all the concealed intricacies and unpredictable hurdles that can present themselves.

Grounds for Divorce

There are five circumstances that the court will consider grounds for granting divorce:

  • Adultery, where the respondent usually admits the offence, or the petitioner's solicitor must present evidence to prove it.
  • Unreasonable behaviour, which can cover all sorts of circumstances.
  • Desertion for two years, if the respondent has left the petitioner without their agreement and without good reason
  • Two years of separation, when the parties have lived apart for two years and both consent to the divorce
  • Five years of separation, in the event that the parties have lived apart for five years but one party is not in agreement.

If the divorce is not complicated and both parties are in agreement about the more complex financial and family issues, Proceedings can be Completed in a Period of 5 - 8 Months, from initial application to Decree Absolute.
