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.

I have seen my spouses text messages and her will without her concent. The contents scream unreasonable behaviour and would prove her intentions towards myself and my dependant. Problem is that because they were obtained without concent I''m concerned that I may struggle to prove what she''s been doing. Can anyone shed some light on this for me. Thanks

Will as in Last Will and Testament? It wont prove anything as it can be changed or revoked at any time and doesn''t become a public document until you die.

What do the text messages prove and how do you know that they weren''t a hoax to wind you up as she knows you will check her phone?

Thanks for the will info. Good point. The text messages were to create slander amongst everyone we know which has been emotionally distressing to both myself and our dependant. They prove that she deliberately intended to leave 80% of her assets to her birth family and 20% to her dependant when our dependant reached university age and has made no provisions for her husband to care for her daughter until then. They also prove she wished to harm her husband. In addition they show her intent to hide 50% of her pension lump sum so she could spend it. Also shows how she reduced a borrowing facility attached to our mortgage as my salary was the only one going in which in turn cause me to find finances to live on elsewhere.
