Please note that our fixed fee for is for an undefended petition. If the other party decides to oppose your petition then our hourly rate applies for any additional work involved. It is unusual for a petition to be defended because of the additional cost involved and the general view that if a marriage or civil partnership is over, it is over.
Our fixed fee does not include advice or negotiations about property or a financial settlement, but does include initial advice about arrangements for the children to enable a statement to be filed with the petition.
Any further advice or instructions on property and finances, or about the children, is provided at our fair fees hourly rate. We would be happy to discuss any of these concerns with you after agreeing our hourly rate based on your gross income.
