Can You Use The Same Lawyer In A Divorce?

OK, so this is a question that we hope we will soon never have to ask again – because the answer will be so obvious ! You absolutely can share a lawyer. And by doing so, you can avoid the extra financial and emotional cost of instructing a legal team each.

There will always be a place for separate legal advice, and some situations do arise where sharing a lawyer will not be appropriate. But, these are rare and for most separating couples, taking early expert advice from one lawyer together will give you the best chance of moving forward together.

One of the most satisfying things about our work at The Divorce Surgery has been seeing the extent to which couples are now asking to share a lawyer.

People instinctively understand that the legal aspects of divorce are an issue that concerns them both, equally, and simply don’t want to find themselves pitted against each other in an adversarial process. And we’ve been happy to help!


If you have more questions about this topic or any other legal issues arising on divorce or separation, please do get in touch as we are always happy to help. You can call us on 0203 488 4475 or email contact@thedivorcesurgery.co.uk.
