Civil Partnerships

As with marriage, it is inevitable that some Civil Partnerships will fail as partners grow apart or circumstances change. The end of a relationship is never easy, but our expert Family Lawyers can help ensure the dissolution of a Civil Partnership is handled sensitively, cost-effectively and with the minimum emotional impact.

Since Civil Partnerships came into effect in December 2006, same-sex couples have been able to register their relationship and achieve a legal status akin to marriage. Alongside these rights which afford Civil Partners similar legal and financial rights as married couples, so came a set of rules and regulations which ensure justice in event of a relationship failure.
