Automated 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 Automated Consent Order Service is for couples who are in total agreement about how to separate their finances, and have simple or no assets.
