The four basic steps to reaching an agreement on divorce finances are: disclosure, getting advice, negotiating and implementing a Consent Order.

After our marriage I found out that my wife was once married, she did not declare it and wrote single on her new certificate.Has she committed any offence.

If she had been married but that marriage had been annulled or she had got divorced, she might have considered her status as single.

Many divorced persons use the term single rather than divorced.

Prior to your marriage, she would have needed to produce her Decree Absolute, in which case, no crime committed.

bigmay if she wasn''t divorced? possibly some civil issue with not declaring she had been once married and producing the documentation to prove she was eligible to re-marry?
