Civil partnership: The dissolution process

The Civil Partnership Act came into force in December 2005. We can advise you as to what this means for you and your same sex partner.

If you wish to dissolve a civil partnership, our family lawyers are here to provide expert guidance.

We provide you with clarity on your circumstances and focus on protecting your long-term interests.

We work alongside you to secure an outcome that protects your finances, future and your children, if you have them.
