*An estimate based on past experience. Although once we've lodged an application at court, the time it takes to process and be returned is out of our hands.
**This fee is fixed on the basis that service of the divorce application can be achieved by recorded delivery post. If Sheriff Officers require to serve or there are other issues about service of the papers, the costs will increase. We will let you know of any such increase in advance.

For obvious reasons, our fixed-fee packages don't cover divorces where there are disputes about children, finances and property.

What our clients say

  • Eilidh Campbell, thank you. The way you presented my defence in court was excellent and it was one of the best representations I have had since I had my first hearing in the family courts. You understood my position fully and raised all the issues. I am very grateful to you for your hard work. I feel very fortunate to have such a safe pair of hands representing me.
