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.

Where has the money come from? If it is a joint account then you can freeze it or close it down.

Frivolous spending can be classed as dissipation of assets.

I feel your pain !
However its an asset that has value - my ex wife is spending it on holidays and things with no value.
