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.

My husband has dragged his feet all this year over the divorce and i have had to push it all from my side. He has finally given his financials in but failed to put forward a proposal for me to consider. As I know he will be travelling a lot for the next month i also know he won't get around to visiting his sol and putting together a proposal for at least a month! Should i push it forward again by giving him a proposal to consider? Also, having worked out what I actually want from him, how much should I put on top to give me negotiating room? I don't have much confidence in my sol so want to be able to give it all to her in black and white so she can't try and push me in the direction she would like. Also, can i ask for my legal fees directly relating to constantly chasing him up to be refunded to me by him? I just want to get something sorted soon so I can get on with my life!
