UK Why this directory exists
Most "find a solicitor" sites online are advertising platforms. Firms pay to appear, the ones paying most appear highest, and nothing on the page tells you whether the firm actually practises the kind of law you need. Others are bulk-scraped lists that were never checked against reality at all.
UK Divorces is an attempt at something more honest: a directory of real, contactable firms where every claim about what a firm does is labelled according to how strongly it has been verified — and where the gaps are stated rather than hidden.
How listings are verified
Every firm here began as a real business record, cross-referenced against Google Business Profile data and, where possible, the firm's own website. Each listing then falls into one of three tiers:
Verified means we opened the firm's own website and found divorce, separation or children's work named there as a service. This is the strongest signal we publish.
Family law means the firm itself selected a family-law category on its own Google Business Profile. That is a self-declaration by the business, which makes it good evidence — but it is not the same as us having checked their website, so we label it differently.
Unconfirmed means we have a real, contactable firm but have not established that they handle family law. We list them because they may still be able to help or refer you, but we will not claim a specialism we have not seen evidence for.
What we will not do
We do not accept payment for placement or for a higher position. We do not take referral fees. We do not invent contact details, ratings, review counts or practice areas — if a field is blank on a listing, it means we could not confirm it, not that it does not exist.
We also do not reproduce the text of anyone's Google reviews. We show each firm's real rating and the full distribution of star scores, then link you to Google to read the reviews themselves in context.
Corrections and removals
If you run a firm listed here and something is wrong — or you would simply rather not be listed — tell us and we will fix or remove it. Use the form on any listing page or the contact page. A person reads every submission.
Who runs this
UK Divorces is operated by Scotreach, a small Glasgow-based digital services team. We also work directly with solicitors and other local businesses on handling enquiries outside office hours, which is how the directory came about in the first place.
This is not legal advice
Nothing on this site is legal advice, and inclusion is not an endorsement or a recommendation. Our guides explain how divorce works across the UK's three legal systems, but they are general information only. For your own situation, speak to a regulated solicitor.
