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.

UK is UK some laws are differnt in Scotland ie you cant marry your cousin but in England you can but only registary office. we have to assume you are already divorced if not then youl be in jankers before you know it 
05 Nov 07 #5889 by Fiona I think someone's kidding you on, marriages conducted in one part of the UK are valid in other parts. In fact legal marriages from many other countries are recognised too. Marriage must be between two otherwise unmarried people.
Just to clarify, England and Scotland are different countries, each with their own legal system and both forming part of the state of the United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland. The Act of Union 1707 guarantees the continued existence of a separate legal system for Scotland.
