• A DIY divorce will save legal fees. These can be considerable. A simple uncontested divorce can cost £1,000 or more and legal fees can become unaffordable in complex cases. Solicitors can charge as much as £150 to £300 an hour for their time, so fees can quickly escalate. • A DIY divorce is usually less adversarial. If you and your spouse are already able to communicate constructively, then introducing solicitors may make that communication more difficult. • Your DIY divorce case may move faster without a solicitor. Your solicitor may be too busy with other cases, causing you needless delays. If this sounds like what you are looking for then you are right for a DIY Divorce.
