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

Am remarried but with no financial agreement for previous marriage. We had two assets my pension and the house which I am still on the deeds and pay mortgage for as part of maintenance. I need resolution for future planning previous wife and I agree verbally on House and capital in it will be hers and pension mine. I also need to protect my current wife''s assets as she owns the house we live in. Can anyone tell me the best way forward. Both parties are in agreement just want something binding without incurring more costs. How long would this all take.

Thanks for any feedback

has your ex wife remarried? if not, she can still make an application to the court, so the way forward would be to get a consent ordr drawn up in which she was the Applicant and you the Respondent.

A Consent Order would usually include a paragraph recordeding that neither of you has any calim n the other''s assets except as st out in the order, and would include a lean break for neither of you to be able to make fresh claims. This protects you and your current wife
