'DIY' Consent Divorce Service
If you and your former spouse have reached agreement on all aspects of your divorce, our DIY Consent Divorce Service can help guide you through the process from the first application through to the final hearing and the granting of your Decree of Divorce.
This service is designed for people who wish to deal with their divorce as lay litigants, without engaging a full legal team, but who still want properly prepared court documents and clear step-by-step guidance.
We prepare the necessary court papers and provide practical instructions to help you understand what needs to be done at each stage of the process.
