We understand that divorce is never easy, and the circumstances surrounding the end of a marriage can vary greatly. Whether you’re seeking a no-fault divorce, facing contentious disputes, or dealing with complex high-net-worth considerations, GloverPriest Solicitors is here to provide the expert legal guidance you need.
The introduction of no-fault divorce in England and Wales has made it easier for couples to separate amicably, without assigning blame. However, contentious cases can still arise, requiring sensitive yet firm handling to protect your rights. High-net-worth divorces, meanwhile, demand a specialist approach to navigate intricate financial settlements, property division, and safeguarding significant assets.
We’re here to guide you through every step, offering clear advice and practical solutions to help you move forward. We provide a complimentary 30-minute consultation, allowing you to meet our team, discuss your case, and explore your options.
Whatever your situation, you can count on us for the support and expertise you need.

A no-fault divorce allows married couples to get a divorce or end their civil partnership without having a specific reason, preventing blame from being passed between spouses and hopefully making the split somewhat more amicable. There are two ways this can be done:
A minimum 20-week period is required from the start of the divorce application to the conditional order, giving couples time to reflect.
The standard court fee for filing for divorce is £593, payable when submitting the application. This fee doesn’t include legal representation costs, which vary depending on your chosen solicitor.
At GloverPriest, we understand how challenging separations can be, so we want to make the process as easy as possible. That’s why we’ve introduced our Fixed-Fee Divorce Scheme, which starts from:
Respondents: from £300.
Applicants: from £500 (plus court fees), provided both parties agree to the divorce.
If you’re on a low income or certain benefits, you may qualify for help with court fees. More details can be found on the GOV.UK website. GloverPriest unfortunately are unable to support legal aid-funded cases.
Without complications, the divorce process generally takes 26 weeks (around 6 months). This timeline does not include any pre-divorce mediation or financial negotiations, which could extend the process.
Simplify your separation with us.
A contentious divorce happens when a couple can’t agree on the key details of their separation, such as dividing finances, deciding where children will live, or sorting out ongoing spousal support. These disagreements can make the process feel stressful and drawn out, and sometimes court involvement is needed to reach a fair resolution.
Common areas where disputes arise include:
Contentious divorces often feel harder because they bring emotional strain alongside financial pressures. Some of the most common reasons for disputes include:
These types of disagreements can make the process slower and more expensive, adding to the emotional toll. With the right support, however, it’s possible to find solutions and move forward.
Protect your rights with us.
A high-net-worth divorce typically involves couples with significant assets, often exceeding £3 million, or where one or both individuals earn over £300,000 annually. While there’s no formal legal definition, these cases often focus on dividing wealth in a way that reflects the lifestyle enjoyed during the marriage.
In these divorces, both matrimonial assets (acquired during the marriage) and non-matrimonial assets (brought into the marriage or inherited) are carefully reviewed. These can include properties, savings, pensions, and more, often requiring a detailed and considered approach.
High-net-worth divorces are often more complex because of the wide range of assets involved, which can include:
Jurisdiction can also play a role, especially if a couple has lived in different countries. Some may try to file for divorce in a jurisdiction that offers a more favourable financial outcome. Transparency is crucial, and in some cases, forensic accountants may be brought in to ensure all assets are disclosed and valued accurately.
High-net-worth divorces require careful financial assessments of assets, including:
These divorces demand expert legal support to ensure a fair outcome, particularly when complex assets and international elements are involved. With the right guidance, you can move forward knowing your interests are protected.
Secure your future with us.
Divorce can impact your finances in significant ways. A Financial Order ensures your assets, property, and future earnings are protected. Our solicitors can help you formalise financial arrangements, including property division and inheritance protection.
