Name: English Divorce

Description: Patrick Lawrence Solicitors was formed in 1983. Early on a decision was made that that it was not sensible in the modern world to undertake all legal work, but to undertake certain work only.

Our Litigation Department has therefore concentrated on family work, including divorce and co-habitee disputes.

Membership of the Law Society's Family Law Panel means that we will seek, where possible a positive non confrontational approach to marriage breakdown.

We do hold a Legal Aid Franchise is Family Work, though legal Aid forms a small part of our overall family practice.

The establishment of this web site arose when we noted that we were gaining a great many clients working outside the UK who needed a point of reference. having said that, it is not limited to the expatriate community.

In most cases, there are four options open to parties whose marriage is in trouble:

Reconciliation

Separation agreement

Judicial Separation :The procedure is the same as obtaining a divorce, and, all of the courts powers relating to property, maintenance, children and so forth are the same. The difference is that you remain married, but in effect, all that marriage means ceases to exist. Motives for using Judicial Separation rather than divorce are varied. In our experience it seems mainly to be used by people with religious objections to divorce, but who still want to bring the reality of marriage to an end.

Divorce: This brings your marriage to an end. It also allows you to remarry if you wish.
