Divorce basics

When a spouse first considers that they want to divorce their husband or wife, it can be a daunting prospect, but the team of Brighton divorce lawyers at Healys can help.

We have many years' experience in helping clients to resolve the difficult issues arising from family and relationship breakdown, and we have handled all types of dispute from international child abduction to disputed financial settlements involving overseas property and businesses.

We can also advise and act on your behalf if your divorce is likely to be straightforward and without complication because at a time of great emotional stress it is easy to overlook something which may become important at a later date. Our team of family lawyers can listen sensitively to your particular circumstances and will advise on how we feel you should proceed to protect your best interests and those of your dependents.

As members of Resolution we believe that all divorce cases should be handled in as conciliatory a manner as possible, but when a situation calls for it we believe in using robust methods, including litigation to resolve disputes and conflict and to ensure our clients are protected.

If you are at the early stages of divorce, perhaps you just want to know about how to choose a good divorce solicitor or how to commence your petition for divorce, we have a number of useful articles, featured below, which look at divorce procedure and what happens during divorce.

Alternatively, if you wish to speak to one of Healys' Brighton divorce lawyers directly you can contact us on 01273 685 888 or email an enquiry to family@healys.com
