Ending a marriage usually results in a divorce and it is important to make sure all the legal processes are followed; using divorce solicitors in North Wales is strongly recommended. Even ‘no fault’ divorces require appropriate legal advice, and a divorce can be applied for as either a joint or sole application.
There are many things to consider when divorcing, but some of the main issues include the division of assets. These could include money and pensions as well as personal belongings. Mediation is often required to discuss this openly and honestly, and the advice of divorce solicitors would also be useful. Being honest about finances at this stage will save a lot of time and money longer term.
Property is another matter which must be examined and some of the options include buying out the ex-partner or selling the home and dividing the equity. Many of these decisions will depend on which spouse can afford to pay a mortgage, or who will have custody of any children.
Dealing with children of divorce must be carefully approached. Details such as where they live and how much time they spend with each parent is a vital part of divorce proceedings; these issues are called child arrangements. Family law solicitors in North Wales can help with documents such as parenting plans and help to implement them successfully.
