Consulting experienced divorce solicitors in Reading (Divorce Solicitors Near Reading) can help you navigate these options effectively.

Basis of Divorce (Divorce Solicitors Near Reading)

1. No-fault divorce: Introduced to simplify the process, no-fault divorce allows couples to separate without assigning blame to either party.
2. Desertion: This applies when one partner has left the other for at least two years without agreement or valid reason.
3. Unreasonable behavior: This basis is common and includes conduct that makes it unreasonable for one spouse to continue living with the other.
4. Two years of separation with consent: If both parties agree to the divorce, they must have lived apart for a minimum of two years.
5. Five years of separation: Either party can divorce if they have been separated for at least five years.
6. Adultery: This can be used as a basis if one spouse can prove the other has engaged in an extramarital affair.

What happens after filing a divorce petition? (Divorce Solicitors Near Reading)

After filing a divorce petition, the court will then send a copy of the divorce petition and acknowledgement of service to the respondent either by post or via email. And once the respondent files the acknowledgement of service with the court, then the court will grant the certificate of entitlement, which will then be followed by the conditional order. Once a conditional order is granted, then the parties have to wait for 6 weeks before they can apply for a final order.

The specific grounds chosen can significantly impact the process and outcomes, making it crucial to seek advice from skilled divorce solicitors in Reading.
