Separation and Joint Legal Advice

One Lawyer, Two Clients – Working Together for a Better Outcome

If you and your partner are separating and want to avoid conflict, Resolution Together offers a fresh, cooperative approach.

Instead of each of you hiring your own solicitor, you can work with one legal professional who supports you both – helping you reach fair, informed decisions together.

This service is ideal for couples who want to separate with dignity, keep things amicable, and focus on what’s best for their family.

What Is Resolution Together?

Resolution Together is a family law model that allows one lawyer to advise both people in a separation or divorce. It’s designed for couples who are broadly in agreement or want to work things out together, without going to court.

You’ll receive clear legal advice, help understanding your options, and support in reaching a joint agreement – all in one place.

How It Works

  • You each have a private meeting with one lawyer to make sure this approach is right for you.
  • If suitable, you’ll then meet together to begin working through your arrangements – such as finances, property, or parenting.
  • Everything is open and transparent. All information is shared, and the focus is on finding solutions that work for both of you.
  • You can bring in other professionals (like financial advisers or family consultants) if needed.

Is It Right for You?

Resolution Together is suitable if:

  • You want to separate amicably and avoid court.
  • You’re both willing to be open and honest.
  • There’s no history of abuse or coercion.
  • You’re ready to make decisions together.

It’s not suitable where there are safeguarding concerns, serious conflict, or if one person is unwilling to share information.

What You Can Expect

  • A safe, respectful space to talk things through.
  • Clear, balanced legal advice.
  • Help reaching a fair agreement.
  • A written agreement or court order if needed.
  • Flexible meetings – in person or online.

Why Choose The Resolution Together Approach?

  • Cost-effective: One set of lawyer’s fees instead of two.
  • Less stressful: Focus on solutions, not arguments.
  • Faster: Avoid court delays.
  • Child-focused: Helps parents work together for their children.
