Divorce Doesn’t Always Mean a Court Battle: Family Law Specialists, Beaconsfield
If divorce is likely to be the outcome, it doesn’t necessarily mean you will end up in a huge court fight spending thousands of pounds. A good divorce doesn’t mean you get a bad deal. Likewise, a contested divorce doesn’t always mean you get a better deal.
Divorce can be tough and unhappy and the reality is that some couples who separate cannot reach an agreement without the assistance of a court process. It may be that a business valuation is needed, or there are question marks about one party’s financial disclosure (undisclosed assets), or other financial complications. There are, however, a good choice of dispute resolution alternatives which many separating couples use effectively to avoid court altogether:
- Direct discussions and agreement reached between the couple. We call this “kitchen table negotiations”. Each party will usually take legal advice on whether the agreement they have reached is fair and may ask the lawyers to make the agreement legally binding.
- Mediation – this will involve discussions between the parties with the assistance of a trained mediator who facilitates. Mediation is a voluntary process; it needs goodwill and trust on both sides. The Mediator will not give legal advice and you may need a lawyer in the background to give you independent legal advice on the parameters of settlement.
- Collaborative law – in this process all parties and their solicitors meet together in the same room in a non- confrontational way, agreeing not to go to court. The parties set the agenda and have their lawyers involved in negotiations.
- Solicitor negotiations this process is popular and very often successful. Negotiations are by letter (where offers are exchanged) or can be at round table meetings
- Arbitration is a good alternative to the court process as it involves an expert private judge and takes place in a timetable set by the parties.

Top Tips to Get You Through: Family Law Specialists, Beaconsfield
Whichever process is right for you, these are our top tips to avoid unnecessary acrimony:
- Encourage communication and transparency in relation to the family finances. Listen to the other argument and have empathy.
- Focus on the children. It may seem trite but try to see the interests of the children at the forefront of the discussions about outcome and appreciate you may each have different viewpoints.
- Don’t undermine each other’s roles in the family dynamic
- Try not to let the grief of the separation cloud your judgment. Remember that timing is crucial- it may take your ex partner longer than you to be able to focus on the future rather than the past.
