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.

My Consent Order was submitted to courts using the online system by my solicitor on 23/2. Had notification on 6/3 that it had been referred to judge for consideration. Does anyone have a idea of how long it's likely to be before I hear if it's been approved - Google says anything between 2-10 weeks at present ?

I think at the moment, the average wait is between 8 and 10 weeks.
