Hi, I'm a new user of the site and wanted to use the Divorce Calculator to get an idea of what my financial position will be, but it doesn't seem to recognise I'm logged in and I can't see the "start" button. Can anyone help with this? Thanks

Welcome to Wikivorce

The calculator is there to give a rough indication of a financia split for those in England & Wales.

I can see you are in Scotland, where the law is quite different.

Marital assets (so those accrued after the date of marriage, and up to the relevant date/date of separation) are usually split on a fairly even basis so 50/50, 45/55. IT would help if you could provide us with some information about your circumstances so we can offer some help and information.

Thanks, explains why I couldn’t access it!

We are separating after 15 years’ marriage, only real assets are FMH and my pension pot. Looking at offsetting one against the other so that W can retain the house and provide stability for two schoolchildren. W has small pension built up so not taking that into the equation. Pension CETV 140k, house equity 151k with approx 73k outstanding on the mortgage. Small other debts to be split 50/50.

Start a new thread giving the details again and you'll probably get a response it looks here like your calculator question has been answered so the post gets over looked.
