Divorce & Family Services

We offer a full range of divorce & family law services

At Clime Associates, our experienced team of solicitors will provide you with first-class service and advice tailored to your situation. When looking to start divorce proceedings, you must first be sure that you have grounds for divorce.

These grounds include:

Adultery
Desertion
Separation of two years (divorce should be sought with the consent of the other party)
Separation of five years (no consent of the other party is required)
Unreasonable behaviour

If any of these grounds apply, a petition for divorce can be issued. If you are unsure whether you want to go through with your divorce, there may be other options open to you. We will discuss these options with you so that you can make an informed decision.

It is important that you receive the correct legal advice early on to decide on the best approach for you. This relates to key issues such as divorce, custody of children, financial arrangements, pension arrangements and inheritance after divorce. There may be an international element to your divorce such as property abroad or your spouse may be living out of the jurisdiction. There may also be company assets or trusts that need to be resolved.

Whatever your situation, our team can help you by offering detailed knowledge and skill to ensure that your rights are protected. We are based in the heart of Providence, Rhode Island and operate nationally.

If you have questions about your options, we are able to offer you a free initial 30-minute consultation in person, and we fix our rate per 30 minutes at $50 thereafter. You can free-call us on 1800-CLI-8888 to arrange this initial consultation, or alternatively you can complete our enquiry form.
