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.


Do you need help sorting out a fair financial settlement?

Our consultant service offers expert advice and support to help you reach agreement on a fair financial settlement quickly, and for less than a quarter of the cost of using a traditional high street solicitor.

Hi all,

I married in Kosovo (im British, she is Kosovan) and for many reasons we have ended up with a divorce. All the divorce proceedings have been completed over in Kosovo, but i don't know if the divorce is legally recognised here in the UK? If it isn't any ideas on how to make it so?

Many thanks, Mofster

Hi mofster

Yes is will be recognised in the uk provided it was granted by means of proceedings and procedure and all was followed correctly.

Divorce granted by religous bodys are not

So your fine go to the lcs site and read form M11
