Hi
Could anyone please tell me whether Consent Orders are only available if you are/were married. If so is there any options similar for couples who just lived together. Could a legal document to act as the same thing be drawn up by a Solicitor for both parties to sign ?
Thank you

The term '' consent order '' means an order made by a Court where both parties are agreed on its terms. It is a term which applied across the board in litigation, not just divorce.

The important point, from your point of view, is enforceability. But without knowing what it is you want to do, I can''t say more.
