Dissolution of Civil Partnerships

dissolution-of-civil-partnerships-londonWe represent many clients who reach the decision to end their civil partnership. This is a very similar process to dissolving a marriage and is achieved by filing a dissolution petition with the court.

You will need to show that the civil partnership has broken down irretrievably, by proving one of four facts:

  • Unreasonable behaviour
  • Desertion
  • Two years separation plus consent
  • Five years separation.

Unlike marriage, it is not possible to use adultery as a fact in a civil partnership dissolution.

It is only possible to apply after a period of one year has elapsed from the date of the partnership.

For further advice on dissolving a civil partnership, please contact Louise Allard or Sabrina Bailey on 020 7993 2936.
