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.


Revenge is smelly!

THE VERY VERY BEST FORM OF REVENGE....................
is showing just how much you dont need that person anymore!

Your life is sweet and sweeter than at any time you were with that person. O my! how you have changed. O my what you no longer smoke? O my, You dont drink anymore? Jesus he has his nipple pierced! My god how much weight have you lost? Arent you looking so much better these days. Never seen you looking so well!
I know I dont know what has come over me. Its like a breath of freshair!

Come on all you out there feeling sorry for yourselves.

Get up and show the world, why you should be in it and what you have to offer. You are you and you are here for a reason, only you have to find the reason, its no good asking another. Be happy in yourself and dont wait or pine for what if or what should of been. If you have been hurt, so what? Get over it! THEY WERE NOT WORTHY OF YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE! YOU DESERVE BETTER! have fun finding it!

Grab every chance you can and if you find yourself building a wall around yourself to not allow another in then, why? isnt it better to have a little of something than have nothing at all? Money? possessions? You cant take any of it with you.

I think maybe we all ought to have a party, maybe we should all meet at a hotel for weekend, call ourselves the WIKIVORCERS, or something, have a dinner and dance, meet build friendships, chat amongst ourselves, get some confidence in ourselves. How many would turn up though? LOL NA! we would all sit there thinking oooooooo I daren't, ooooooooooo too scarey, oooooo you shouldnt do things like that! And then another week of our lives go by, another month goes by, another years goes by, and then well the inevitable happens.
So for all of us who say darent, cant or wont? LIfe is too short, if we make pratts of ourselves along the way, so what who cares?

ENJOY LIFE! THATS WHAT WE ARE HERE FOR!
Sorry off i've gone again! LOL

Many thanks for your kind comments, really glad the post gave you a boost! xx

Shelia & Jen.

Throughout the 3 years our case went on, i used to lay in bed at night, (could never actually sleep) but oh how i plotted all different kinds of revenge, I cant tell you how it consumed my mind, unbelivable thoughts, in fact so terrible were the things I were going to do to my partners ex, they really are unprintable. However the day of the FH changed all that, I actually feel sorry for her, (in my own little way!) I dont want any kind of revenge anymore and boy i cant begin to tell you the things this woman did to my kids and I, but hey thats another story.
I do grin to myself at times though, with the thought of sending her a 50th birthday card next year, with the words " awww only another TEN years to go chuck! (referring to her 30% share of my husbands pension!)
Whether i actually do that, well we shall have to see, i suspect though that by next year she will have paled into total insignificance. Heres hoping! LOL

Kind thoughts everyone lol
Louise xx

Its not some men and its not some women. Its some people.Never lose sight of that and dont let our experiences make us bitter. Revenge is smelly so dont do it, just keep your heads up. They can steal almost everything you own but they cant even get close to your decency. That cant be stolen from you but it can be thrown away. KEEP IT.
