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.

It sounds like she wants a divorce but you do not.

I don't blame you as divorce is very painful, expensive and not to be recommended - unless your relationship is beyond repair.

I think you need to do you best to talk to her and understand what she is unhappy about.

Often the things people complain/argue about are hiding deeper problems under the surface.

You need to have several long chats and dig deep to find out what she feels is missing in her life.

Once you know you can then decide if it is something you can work together to fix, or if she now wants something very different from her life with you.

I'm sure others will add their thoughts.
