We ensure that you receive expert legal guidance on dissolution of your civil partnership, while being supportive of your emotional needs.
At RVS Solicitors, we ensure that those going through a dissolution of their civil partnership receive expert legal guidance, in a manner that is highly supportive of their emotional needs, and those of their children.
When it comes to matters involving children, finances, and property, avoiding court proceedings is highly desirable as litigation is often costly and can create further animosity between couples, who for the sake of the children, must strive to foster a respectful ongoing relationship.
As members of Resolution, a group of 6,500 family solicitors nationwide, we believe that alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation and round-table negotiation provide the best, long-lasting outcome for families. By leveraging peaceful and non-confrontational negotiation methods, couples can reduce the overall stress and emotional upheaval experienced during a separation and make decisions that are rational and are in the best interests of everyone.
While we support non-confrontational approaches to bringing about agreements following a civil partnership dissolution, we also understand that sometimes court litigation cannot be avoided. If this does happen, we will provide you with robust legal representation while being sensitive to the situation you and your children find yourselves in.
The service we offer to our clients is always tailored to their needs. Based on your circumstances, we will adapt how we work to you. And if you need us, we will be there to give reassurance, answer questions, and provide any legal advice you need. Our easy availability is central to the service we provide, and while we may not always be immediately available to speak, we will return your call or correspondence as soon as practicably possible.
As per the Civil Partnership Act 2004, civil partnerships are the legal union of a same-sex couple. The criteria to be able to dissolve that partnership are broadly similar to that of divorce. Firstly, the civil partnership must have been in place for 12-months or longer. And secondly, the grounds for the dissolution are the same as divorce, namely that the relationship has ‘irretrievably broken down’ due to one of the following reasons:
Civil partnerships have the same grounds for dissolution as divorce, except that adultery is not explicitly included.
To dissolve a civil partnership, the steps are as follows:
In certain circumstances, civil partners may not wish to apply for dissolution of the civil partnership and instead may apply for a separation order. A separation order is similar to a judicial separation.
To gain a separation order, the applicant must establish desertion, unreasonable behaviour, separation of more than two years, or separation of more than five years, but they do not have to prove the civil partnership has ‘irretrievably broken down’.
There is no doubt that for most couples, the process of dissolving a civil partnership is upsetting, stressful, and uncertain. RVS Solicitors will support you each step of the way, doing what is best for you and your family. We will keep you informed as matters progress, removing uncertainty, giving you confidence, and helping you to move forward to a positive future.

Excellent service for my wife’s spousal visa from Lusine: very detailed advice, friendly and approachable. Also flexible in contact by email and provided an excellent cover letter.
I highly recommend Dr. Lusine Navasardyan, as she is professional, intelligent, hard worker and cheerful, she helped us from the beginning of our case until the very end, when she prepared a strong bundle with over 385 pages, which helped us get a successful victory in our Asylum case . I strongly recommend her as I really appreciate all the professional work that she has done . Many thanks to her.
Dr. Lusine has been working on my case. She has been very professional and a reliable person. She was always attending to my queries and she has always been very friendly throughout my case.
I am very happy with the level and quality of service I got from Dr. Lusine Navasardyan. She is very professional while creating a friendly and comforting relationship with her clients. The service from Lusine was professional,efficient and well organised. Lusine worked extremely hard at resolving my all issues while getting the best result.
So Rakhi Singal of RVS has just handled my divorce, it was a very complex case and I came to Rakhi at the very last minute on a friend’s recommendation. My case was a mess and I stood to lose everything.
Dealing with Rakhi was more like having In-House counsel than hiring a law firm, she does not approach her clients as a cash machine like many law firms do, she works with you to manage and minimise your costs and de-escalate conflict rather than throw wood on the fire.
She took a huge personal interest in my case, she was always available on the phone, very quick to respond to emails and is very honest and trustworthy.
My ex had huge spending power and used a team of high profile solicitors against me, Rakhi literally saved me from complete ruin and helped me get a very fair deal with me spending 6 times less than my ex on legal fees.
Thank you, my new family and I will be forever grateful!!!!
Could not be more pleased with the results!
I approached RVS solicitors as they were highly recommended and now I completely understand why. Soon as I contacted Rakhi I knew I wanted to use her, she was so professional and easy to get along with. I was faced with clients who were refusing the pay invoices, Rakhi immediately reassured me that she was able to help me and recoup these costs. She dealt with the whole process very professionally.
Really impressed with Rakhi’s dedication to our case and her knowledge and experience on dealing with the case. She communicated with us throughout the process, providing me with regular updates. Thank you so much, I cannot vouch for her work enough and RAW Invites are happy for you to continue to act for all their matters in the future.
