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.

I hope this is going to make sense....
I filed for divorce 3 months ago... my STBX told me that he had returned the acknowledgement of service form to the court 2.5 months ago...
His last correspondence from his sol asked the question..."has your client filed for divorce?"... but the first correspondence from that same sol said "We have been consulted by Mr X regarding the divorce petition served upon him"....
I met with my sol today and she said that she had received nothing from the court re this 'acknowledgement of service'...
Is there any way I can find out if he has infact returned this form....

Thanks for any help

my stbx was served the divorce papers on 17th september she only sent it back to the court on the 25th october, she wanted a divorce but she is stalling at every opportunity, rung a debt advisory service to sort out the debts and they said she should be contributing why is she not? sol said ther cant do anything until divorce as started, how can somebody stall and not pay there debts and get away with it. mine as done it for a year and just thinks its a joke that the house is looking like it is going to be repossessed making me and the kids homeless.
