any solicitors in the house?
freelanderpx54:
If you are doing the paperwork yourself then make sure you get a clean break order. This should make it more difficult to come after you for spousal maintainance

I split up in 99 gave her a couple of grand and kept the house, in 2004 had a new partner so while off work sick (industrial injury) and on reduced wages I went to the solicitors gave 4 weeks wage slips in and bingo I got legal aid, :dance: in all it cost me about a fiver to get another solicitor to sign a form.
It took a couple of months (I was back at work) and it was all sorted.
I havent learnt (maybe it was the price) Im getting married again in May :doh: :lol:
winchman:
I will consult with my legal team ( when she gets back from the Gym)
I would think a couple of hundred spent with a good divorce solicitor is money well spent as if you get it wrong and have a future claim this could cause you problems.
If its what you both want I cant see it being difficult
Usually any assets are split 3 ways between you, the wife and the solicitor LOL
JumboBeef:
I feel your pain: been there, done that.
Are children involved?
KingWolf:
I'm watching this with interest as I'm in exactly the same boat. I've been split from the Wife for over 2 years now and she's badgering me for a divorce. I'm all for saving money and I'm more than happy for us to sort it out ourselfs (we are on speaking terms) but my only fear is I don't want her coming back in a few years time asking for half my jackpot lottery win (which I'm hoping will happen at some point [-o<)
Thankfully we've no kids and as we had a second property I just signed one of them over to her so I'm hoping it will all be straight forward.
Mark.
