Divorce Solicitors

Sadly, many marriages end in divorce. If your marriage has irretrievably broken down, a year has passed since you married and you are able to rely on one of the five facts (adultery, unreasonable behaviour, 2 years’ desertion, 2 years’ separation or 5 years’ separation) then it is open to you to obtain a divorce.

Regardless of the circumstances of your relationship breakdown, O’Donnell Solicitors can provide the legal advice you need to understand your position and options. Our experienced team of divorce lawyers know that deciding to separate or divorce can be extremely distressing, especially where there are children involved. As we specialise in this area, we are not only able to advise you on the law, we are also able to impart practical and emotional advice gained from many years of working in the area of divorce.

If there is an international aspect to your marriage, then you should seek advice immediately so that you are aware of your options as to which jurisdiction you could file your divorce proceedings in.

There are also other options available such as annulment proceedings or judicial separation proceedings if divorce is not an option. There are financial advantages and disadvantages relating to each type of proceedings that we will be able to explain the relative merits of to you.

Divorce can affect inheritance, pension and financial rights, so it is important that you seek specialist legal advice at the earliest possible opportunity. Even if you have not yet separated from your partner, seeking legal advice can help you to understand your position so you are informed if and when you come to making that decision.
