Divorce “app”

The government is launching a new £14m “divorce app” to give separating couples help and advice on how to deal, as amicably as possible, with the ramifications of a divorce.

A new web-based device, which will be accessible through computers and mobile phones, will give advice on how best to separate without acrimony, including how to arrange child support payments and coping with new partners.

Ministers believe that it will save couples money in the long run as it will look to get partners, with children, trying to sort out their disputes themselves rather than using the Child Support Agency and say that the £14m fund, will promote interventions to get parents working together, providing counselling, emotional support and mediation along with online and telephone advice.

Many of my family members have used Winstons Solicitors for their conyancing, over many years. I too have now used them and they did not disappoint. Samantha Robertson-Strong and Paulo Dos Santos were my main persons of contact. They were highly professional and very thorough, whilst maintaining an air of friendliness and approachability throughout. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

My son recently purchased a property. I had used Winston Solicitors for many years and had no hesitation in recommending them to him. Their service is outstanding; very professional yet friendly and approachable. Samantha is awesome. She always does a thorough job. Paulo, her assistant, has been an absolute pleasure to deal with as well. So a huge thumbs up and many thanks all around! - October 2025

This was a stressful (and as it was a property purchase caused by divorce), very emotional. Samantha and Paulo were always very kind and patient. - October 2025

I recently used Winston Solicitors for the purchase of my first home and was extremely impressed with the service. My solicitor, Leasa, along with her assistant, Julie, were outstanding throughout the process—thorough, accommodating, and always patient in explaining each step clearly. They made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable, always going above and beyond to support me. I truly appreciated their professionalism and personal approach, and I would not hesitate to recommend Winston Solicitors to anyone - I cannot thank you all enough. - September 2025
