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.

As you may know from my posts I am up to my eyes in debt if we added his and mine and joint business we are talking 110k.

We have approx 9k in a house.

He has put forward a settlement of 30K to him in exchange for the children and I keeping the house.

I feel shaken and can't believe he can live in such cloud cuckoo land!

Theres no harm in trying now is there? LOL

Ignore it and treat it with the contempt it deserves.

When we got to a final hearing the other parties offer was so ludicrous that we returned the offer with a likewise one!

The barrister on the other side pointed to our offer and told the Judge that it was outrageous!

The Judge replied" YES!!!! well I'm sure if you hadnt of put that ridiculous offer in before then we WOULD NOT be here today, now would we?
I had to stifle a laugh by pretending to cough!

Keep your chin up chuck and dont let the B******s grind you down!
