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.

I know this occurs so often on this forum - "reasons for unreasonable behaviour", but there's so many people with so much advice out there - it's extremely helpful to those of us who haven't done it before!

Can anyone help (- make comment, advise ?) with my reasons ....?


1. The Petitioner and Respondent have lived apart since December 2008 making the petitioner feel abandoned and that the marriage is already over.

2. Any time the Petitioner and Respondent spend together has caused emotional stress and strain resulting in the petitioner feeling uncomfortable and stressed when the respondent is present.

3. The Respondent has become over critical of the Petitioner , resulting in the Petitioner feeling anxious, unsupported with low self-confidence.

4. The Petitioner and Respondent no longer have any common interests making the petitioner feel lonely and neglected.

5. The Petitioner no longer recieves any emotional support from the Respondent which leaves the petitioner feeling unloved and un cared for.

Thanks for reading ...

Am sure that will be fine. To be honest with you in my experience if both parties agree then a Judge is not going to make issue over grounds. If you are both agreeing to irretrievable breakdown then you should be good to go as the saying goes.

If you wife disagrees with your UB thats where you will find a problem. You should try between you to agree on what grounds you are to divorce. But if you cannot then if you go down the non-confrontational route (which you grounds seem to be) then he is less likely to take action against.

Thats just my opinion, Judges, in my area, are not there to try to make people stay married if neither want to be.

or as you have been separated since July 08 then you could just wait until July then and go for two years separation if the UB grounds will cause a problem (which am sure they will not)
