Deciding to separate from your spouse may be a difficult decision to make.  We are here to help you through the process.

In Scotland the main ground for divorce is that your marriage has broken down irretrievably. There are four ways to establish irretrievable breakdown.

• If you can establish that your spouse has been unreasonable and that you are no longer able to live with them.
