Parslows offers peace of mind amidst Jersey Legal Aid changes for divorce and associated proceedings.”

Jersey Divorce Legal Aid

Since inception, Parslows was and remains to this day conscious of legal costs relating to divorce and associated proceedings. That’s why we were the first firm in Jersey to introduce fixed fee divorce packages.

Up to 1 April 2022 it had been possible to obtain a level of legal aid for divorce and other family matters for much of the Jersey community. However, changes to Divorce Legal Aid in Jersey has had a significant impact on this provision.

Now, if you require a divorce lawyer and your income is more than £42,000.00 per year and/or you have capital of more than £63,000.00, which includes equity in a property, you will not qualify for family law legal aid.

Regardless of your income, if you do not have children, you will also not be eligible for Family legal aid for a wide range of family law matters.

Whilst, there has been a growth in the number of personal applicants submitting applications before the Family Court, people facing such issues are concerned as to whether they are disadvantaged because they perceive engaging a lawyer is too costly.

In response, Parslows has updated its range of fixed fee packages for Jersey Divorce and civil dissolution. Please see JERSEY DIVORCE FIXED FEE PACKAGES for further detail.

As always, we aim to provide peace of mind during stressful times.

What our clients say

“Help and support…”

‘Dear Barbara

I just wanted to write to thank you for all your help and support during the last year through my divorce proceedings.

As you know it has had its challenges but throughout the process you have been absolutely fantastic. You have explained things to me in a clear and non legal jargon way that I could understand and have been my calm when I went through the storm and kept me steady when I wasn't feeling stable at all.
You have been efficient and knowledgeable and have advised me in a way that suited my needs. Throughout the whole process you have supported me which has helped get me through this difficult time.

In fact all the staff I have come into contact with at Parslows have been wonderful.
A special mention also to Edward who helped me when I got flustered with the online payment system at the beginning.

I am looking forward to bringing more business to you when I am able to sell the house and finally move properly on.’

“Careful consideration and time …”

Thank you for steering the dispute to family foundation, something my ex-partners legal advisor should have requested form the outset as a first step. A summons to Royal Court would have been a very bad situation for all parties.

I thank you for your careful consideration and time.
