Assisted Consent Order Service

If you’ve separated from your partner, you’ll need to work out how you plan on separating your finances. This includes dividing any money, property, pensions, and debt.

You will also need to go through the legal steps to get divorced and make your financial arrangements legally binding through a consent order to end the possibility of future claims (a ‘clean break’).

Our Assisted Consent Order Service is designed for couples who are in total agreement about how to separate their finances and want the opportunity to discuss their agreement with a Divorce Specialist.

You should use this service if you have any questions about your agreement, would like an expert review by one of our Divorce Specialists, if your agreement is not broadly an equal split, or if you have complex assets*.

*Complex assets include three or more properties (including part ownership or overseas property), or a business or overseas assets or assets over £2M.
