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.

Hi,

I was just wondering if anybody knew roughly how long Bury St Edmunds are taking to sign off Consent Orders? I have heard that it's several months.

i am trying to suggest to my ex that once we have agreed the consent order ourselves we shouldn't wait for sign off but proceed with settlement as sign off could take a long time.

Thanks in advance
