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 everyone, just found this site and want to introduce myself. I am an applicant in a divorce that has been ongoing for about 2 years now. I was with my ex-partner for 14 years and things were mostly ok until we got married and moved in together. God but did i read him wrong. The divorce hasnt exactly been plain sailing as at 1st he didnt consent to the separation, then when the unreasonable behaviour was put to him he wanted to refer back to the separation. Then he withdrew his consent to the separation. All very frustrating but i perservered. Eventually was up in court on Monday for my Decree Nisi but yet again met a stumbling block. He had got someone else to sign his name on one of the forms :SDuno exactly what his game is but im not gona be detered.
