How The Fields Group Works

Quickie Divorce links to Endeavour Law

Quickie Divorce, Managed Divorce and Endeavour Law have been operating deceptively to those looking for divorce form processing that can be found free online.*

Whether it is an offence or a regulatory breach depends entirely on which company hides the link and how they are regulated, but under UK law, failing to disclose these inter-company ties is a serious violation of both consumer protection law and professional rules.

Unlike the other brands, Endeavour Law Limited is a fully SRA-regulated law firm (specifically an Alternative Business Structure, or ABS) owned by Fields Group Ltd. Because an actual law firm is involved in this pipeline, strict transparency rules apply to the referral process.

The legal and regulatory breakdown of this arrangement details how the rules are applied:

1. For the Law Firm (Endeavour Law) – SRA Breach

Under the SRA Code of Conduct, a regulated law firm is strictly prohibited from hiding its relationship with an introducer.

The Rule: If a law firm receives client referrals from an interconnected business (like Quickie Divorce, which is also a Fields Group company), the law firm must inform the client of any financial or other interest the introducer has in referring the client to the firm, as well as any fee-sharing arrangement relevant to the client’s matter.

The Violation: If Endeavour Law accepts a divorce lead from Quickie Divorce without clearly telling the client about a relevant financial interest or fee-sharing arrangement between the companies, it is a severe breach of SRA transparency rules. While not a criminal offence for the firm, it is a disciplinary matter that can result in SRA sanctions, fines, or conditions placed on their licence.

2. For the Website (Quickie Divorce) – Consumer Law Violation

Quickie Divorce operates as an unregulated commercial website. However, hiding corporate links when channelling customers to a sister company may violate the unfair commercial practices provisions of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024.

Misleading Omissions: Under consumer law, it is unlawful for a business to engage in an “unfair commercial practice” by omitting material information that a consumer needs to make an informed choice, where this is likely to cause the consumer to take a transactional decision they would not otherwise have taken. You can read the CMA guidance on unfair commercial practices for further information.

The Trap: If a consumer believes they are using an independent, neutral online platform to find a divorce option, and that platform secretly funnels them to its own sister law firm without stating the commercial conflict of interest, it constitutes a misleading omission. This falls under the jurisdiction of Trading Standards and the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA).

Summary of the Setup

The arrangement works as a closed funnel: Quickie Divorce pulls in the front-end consumer leads, and Endeavour Law acts as the SRA-regulated backend to process the formal legal work. If they do not explicitly state in their terms and client care letters that they share the same parent owners, they are violating both SRA compliance rules and UK consumer transparency laws.

Note: You can download all official UK divorce forms completely for free directly from the UK Government website. You do not need to pay a commercial company or a solicitor just to access the paperwork. You can find the official divorce and civil partnership dissolution forms on GOV.UK.

Where to Find the Free Forms

The official forms depend on whether you want to file everything online or use paper documents:

The Online Portal: The easiest way to get the forms and file for divorce is through the official GOV.UK Apply for a Divorce portal. The system generates the correct forms for you as you type.

The Paper Form (Form D8): If you prefer to print and mail the paperwork, you can download the PDF document directly from the HM Courts & Tribunals Service Form Finder. The document you need is called Form D8: Application for a divorce.

A Critical Warning About Costs

While the forms themselves are 100% free to download, the court system itself charges a mandatory fee to process the application:

The Court Fee: The current standard fee to submit a divorce application to the court is £628.

Fee Reductions: If you are on a low income, receive state benefits, or have little to no savings, you may not have to pay this fee. You can check if you qualify and apply for a waiver using the GOV.UK Help with Fees (Form EX160) service before you submit your divorce papers.
