Marriage, Separation & Divorce
Report
It is becoming more and more common, particularly as people enter into a second marriage, for them to take legal advice prior to marriage. We are happy to advise on matters you may wish to discuss in relation to the legal implications of marriage.
Divorce can be a highly stressful and emotional time for a client and we will always provide expert advice as well as a sympathetic and personal approach.
In Scotland, divorce is granted on the breakdown of marriage based on unreasonable behaviour, adultery, one year separation with consent of the other party or two years separation without consent.
Where there are no children of the marriage under 16 years old and financial and property matters are resolved, it is possible to raise a divorce action using a Simplified Divorce Procedure which is quick and cost effective.

Civil Partnership, Separation & Dissolution
Report
Recent changes in the law have allowed same sex couples to enter into a Civil Partnership. We offer advice on the legal implications of entering into a Civil Partnership.
We are also happy to advise civil partners who are separating and are seeking a dissolution of their Civil Partnership. This is a process which is very similar to divorce for married couples.

Family Mediation
Report
Alexis Hunter is a Family Law Mediator accredited by the Law Society of Scotland. Family Mediators are independent and therefore do not act directly for one person. Mediation assists separating couples to work out a solution to their difficulties whether relating to children, financial matters or both. Family Law Mediators require many years of experience in family law and undergo specialist training in mediation.
Mediation is seen as a less adversarial and useful alternative to Court as it is a cheaper option that enables you to direct the process and decide the outcome.
You will still need court involvement for an undefended divorce or dissolution after you have resolved issues using Family Mediation.
