Civil partnerships

It is inevitable that, as with marriages, some Civil Partnerships will fail. We have experience of advising clients seeking to dissolve such partnerships.

In December 2006 legislation came into force enabling same sex couples to formally register their relationship as a Civil Partnership. This is the first opportunity such couples have had to achieve a legal status akin to marriage.

The law facilitating Civil Partnerships also provides the means to terminate, or dissolve, that legal status. The principles and procedures are very similar to those involved in a divorce process.

Civil Partners will also enjoy similar financial rights and remedies as married couples, affording them a much higher level of protection and indeed justice in the difficult circumstances of a relationship failure.

This is an emerging area of the law in respect of which we have undertaken specialist training. We understand the importance to you of quality legal advice and support, and as Resolution Accredited Solicitors are well equipped to find the right solution for you as swiftly and as amicably as possible.
