Helping You With Your Civil Partnership Dissolution

We can support you and make sure you are fully informed throughout the partnership dissolution. If necessary, we can also advise on financial protection matters such as inheritance & estate planning, drafting and civil partnership agreements. 

Our solicitors regularly provide assistance to the LGBTQ+  community on all issues relating to divorce and civil partnership dissolution for separation.

In October 2018, the government agreed to extend civil partnerships to heterosexual couples.

Examples of work undertaken by our family solicitors include:

  • Acting for a husband in a same-sex marriage in relation to contested remedy proceedings. The matter involved an urgent application for an injunction in light of the husband's steps to place assets out of reach;

  • Drafting civil partnership agreements;

  • Drafting pre-nuptial agreements;

  • Advising same-sex partners in relation to surrogacy and obtaining parental orders; and
