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, I am about to file my form a to get ancillary relief, we got divorced but ticked to do this part later, i now need to do is as my ex is not keeping to his word.

I'm not sure how it all works, we were together 13 years, have 4 children but were only married 3 before seperating
. My ex has only made his first maintenance payment in 3 years this month, and the main reason i am doing it as it looks like my ex is going to sell his property and not planning on making sure me and the children have anywhere to live or get anything from it. The house was only in his name, how is everything worked out? I also inherited some money right before our divorced was finalized, is he entitled to any of this, it was left only to Me.

The first thing you must do is to register matrimonial home rights against your husband's house. This is to stop him selling or mortgaging the property over your head. This is neither difficult nor expensive. Make this your priority.

There are many reasons why it is better to proceed with the application for ancillary relief earlier rather than later. My advice would be to proceed without delay.
