What are we each entitled to in our divorce settlement?

What does the law say about how to split the house, how to share pensions and other assets, and how much maintenance is payable.

What steps can we take to reach a fair agreement?

The four basic steps to reaching an agreement on divorce finances are: disclosure, getting advice, negotiating and implementing a Consent Order.

What is a Consent Order and why do we need one?

A Consent Order is a legally binding document that finalises a divorcing couple's agreement on property, pensions and other assets.

The special procedure application (or statement in support of divorce which it is now called) is the application for a Decree Nisi.

If the application has been submitted and assuming that the judge is happy for the divorce to proceed, a certificate of entitlement will be issued. Around a week later the decree Nisi is issued. It is then up to the Petitioner to make the final application for Decree Absolute.
