Hello, I welcome your advice.
may lawyer says we just need a standard letter of instruction to the PODE asking for pensionshare and offsetting despite:
-his db pension in payment owing to medical retirement.
- his pension 2x mine based on CETV
-my pensions all db but with multiple providers and all with different scheme retirement ages (60,65,67).
My solicitor says this will give court enough info to decide a fair split. But I'd rather settle before court. Who in court will be expert enough in pensions to use this information to decide how this should be split?
is my solicitor giving sound advice?

extra info. Both mid 50s. I am working in salaried job. He says he is incapable of work but receives no disability benefits and has invisible earnings.

ive read PAG2 and thus looks like it's not going to be easy for anyone to work out what's fair.

thank you
