Some divorces become contentious and, in these instances, it is vital to use the services of divorce solicitors in North Wales. These legal experts are skilled in negotiating often emotional and complex matters whilst trying to avoid lengthy and draining divorce situations.
The Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020 is intended to make the divorce process as smooth as possible and lays out the conditions for no fault divorce. This often makes the process less aggressive since no one party needs to be blamed for the separation. However, despite this act, there is still the option to blame one spouse for the divorce, and this often happens when the situation is confrontational.
Family law barristers in North Wales can represent an individual in the family court when a divorce becomes contentious, but certain criteria must be met by the couple such as length of residency in the United Kingdom. Child custody issues and financial matters can be determined in this court when couples are unable to come to their own agreements.
Spousal maintenance, division of assets and child custody arrangements are amongst the most fought about issues in a contended divorce. Pre-nuptial agreements may also be examined and, finally, the judge will make decision based on all the information provided on child visitation rights and support for an ex-spouse, amongst others.
