Read our latest Financial Settlements guide (2021) 

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.

Over one and a half years on from discovering my exs affair, I have had the most complicated time consuming and contentious divorce which reached final hearing. Have still so many issues going on CSA tribunal pending, small claims court submission for unpaid CSA , looks likely that also need to go back to court for clarification on court order too .

Despite this I actually feel happy, amazed so I am I!! Happier than I ever felt when married, have my independence, two fantastic children and have met a man who has made me realise what I never had when married.

For everyone out there 22 months ago I was rock bottom, i couldn''t focus , eat or sleep for months, I never thought I would feel any different and never thought I would feel happiness again. It has been a long hard road admittedly but I hope that those of you out there feeling at your lowest ebb will take some comfort that you will not feel that way forever and there really can be a happy life after divorce.

Good to read a positive post.My STBX moved out today and even though it''s what I wanted it still doesn''t feel great.I know it''s something I have to live through and I certainly feel better than during the last few years of our marriage.
