Can my spouse and I use the same solicitor in our divorce?

Your solicitor has a duty to be impartial and to ensure that their advice is representing your position best. We, as solicitors, couldn’t ensure this if we represented two opposing positions in a case, this is a conflict of interest, and that’s why the answer is an emphatic ‘no’ from Eilidh Coltman, Senior Solicitor. At Johnson Legal, we offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation to help you understand your options and point you in the right direction.
