Our paralegals are also accredited, which is a hallmark of experience that you can trust. We leverage our expertise to support you and secure the best possible outcome for your separation.

    Our law firm strives to be different by offering a unique fee structure based on the actual time we spend working on your case.

    I shopped about a fair bit before selecting Rooney Family Law to deal with my divorce. I found their website to be well laid out and very useful. The fact that they are transparent about their fees on their site appealed to me. It was fairly complex as it involved a business, pensions and other financial matters. I engaged their services and they negotiated hard to achieve a fair settlement on my behalf. They were in constant communication throughout the process.

    Friendly professional advice and service.I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them.

    After spending a small deposit on a house with another law firm i decided to change, and i am so glad that i did. Brian Rooney and his team, achieved my divorce in a seamless manner, even through a pandemic ! There a communication was swift, and in the manner that i preferred. I’m hoping i don’t require the use of a family law specialist again but should i do i wouldn’t hesitate in using Brian and his team.

    Divorce & Family Law Services

    At Rooney Family Law, we understand that going through a divorce can be a challenging time, particularly when children or finances are involved. However, we are here to provide you with expert guidance and advice to help you find the best possible solution for your situation. In Scotland, divorce is only possible when a marriage has broken down, and there are four grounds for this:

    • Unreasonable behavior
    • Adultery
    • Separation for over one year (if both parties agree)
    • Separation for over two years (consent is not necessary)

     

    We offer various types of divorce services that may not require you to go into the reasons for the separation. You can find more information about each option on our website or by contacting us directly.

    The quickest and most cost-effective type of divorce is the Simplified Divorce. This option is available if you have been separated for over a year and have no children under 16. All financial matters must be resolved before filing, as no financial claims can be made as part of this type of divorce.

    Another type of divorce is the undefended Ordinary Divorce, which is suitable for couples with children under 16 and no financial claims. This procedure is relatively straightforward and can be dealt with by a local sheriff court in approximately 10-12 weeks.

    If both parties can agree on the welfare of the children and the financial situation, the divorce process is more straightforward. However, if an agreement cannot be reached, a more complex divorce case may require mediation before being decided by the courts.

    At Rooney Family Law, we are here to help with any family law issues you may have. You can contact us by messaging us or calling our helpline at 0800 779 7848. To learn more about our legal services, please visit our legal pages:
