What is a civil partnership?
A civil partnership is a legal agreement between two people who wish to form a committed relationship, providing legal recognition and rights similar to marriage. It is most commonly used by same-sex couples, although is available to opposite-sex couples too, offering legal protection and responsibilities in areas such as inheritance, tax, and property ownership.

Frequently asked questions: Civil Partnership Dissolution
How long does the civil partnership dissolution process typically take?
The dissolution process generally takes 4 to 6 months from initial application to final order. However, complexities involving finances, property division or arrangements for children may extend this timeframe.
What happens if we cannot agree on financial arrangements?
If agreement cannot be reached amicably between partners, mediation or collaborative law procedures are encouraged as a first step. Should these measures fail, court proceedings may be necessary to determine fair division of assets and finances.
Do I have rights to my partner’s pension after dissolution?
Civil partners may have a right to pension sharing upon dissolution. Our experts will assist you in exploring and securing an appropriate pension division as part of your financial arrangements.
Can I dissolve my civil partnership if we have children together?
Yes. The welfare of any children involved remains a priority. We will help you establish clear arrangements regarding living situations, financial support and parental responsibilities, ensuring minimal disruption for your children.
Can we still use mediation if our relationship is not amicable?
Yes, mediation can still be effective even if communication is challenging. An independent mediator is trained to help manage conflict and encourage productive dialogue, helping both parties reach an agreement without court involvement.
