Civil Partnerships | Civil Partnership Dissolution

Civil Partnerships Introduction

It is important to choose a solicitor who understands that the breakdown or dissolution of a civil partnership is similar but different to a divorce. This can involve legal advice to ensure that the financial issues are resolved fairly and smoothly. There may also be children issues to consider including residence and contact.

Any international issues must also be looked at carefully to include where the parties are residing, their domicile and also where any assets are located. There can also be tax implications about a person stating their place of residence or domicile so care is needed.

We can advise and assist to make sure that there is full and relevant financial disclosure, the value of the assets (including business interests and pensions) is known and there is a reasonable and sensible financial settlement. Where court proceedings are necessary we will deal with the case robustly and ensure the best possible outcome.
