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 Matta,
Welcome to wiki, sorry you find yourself here.
She has no right to kick you out of the house, if you are a co-owner. That said if you tried to move back in there would in all likleyhood be an almighty scene and you''d end up with police involved and that is something that you really want to avoid. If I understand she is refusing money from you for bills and mortgage, if that is correct then thats not a bad result for you, the way that this would be viewed is that the bills are her bills and your half of the mortgage which she is paing is in lieu of rent.
With regard to maintenance you would ultimatly be liable to 15% of your net salary (after tax etc) although I understand the CSA methods for calculating maintenance are changing.

Your options when you return from Italy are to try and move back in, but it would probably be worth getting a solicitors letter stating that you intend to move back in. Alternativly you could look for somewhere to rent in the short term, but make sure its a 2 bedroom property so that you can have your child overnight.
