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.

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.

After my husband had an affaire we separated and I went away for a few weeks. On my return he vacated the marital home. I had asked him not to move his new family in whilst I was away but he did and the house was filthy.
I have now said that I will not vacate the house until I get my settlement and he has moved into a property owned by his mother with his new family.
As I go away a lot due to the fact that the house is next to our business that he still runs he is threatening to break in and take over the house when I am away.
Does anyone know if he can do this?
I have no where to go or move my belongings until I get my settlement but I don’t want to be here all the time and I am now worried about going away.

If the property is jointly owned there is nothing to stop either of you moving people in. All of this kinda thing will be resolved by mediation through the divorce. Stay as calm as you can and STAY in the house ok.
