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.

I am separated from my wife although we both still live in the marital home with our 2 children. Do i have any liability for maintenance while this set up continues? If not what contributions am I expected/ legally obliged to make towards child care/ welfare?

A non resident parent is a parent who is not living in the same household as the child. So while this continues my inclination is to suggest the CSA cannot be involved ; but you have a responsibility in law to support your child.
