I agreed a financial split with my ex which doesn't feel fair - but for personal reasons I am looking to avoid nasty negotiations and the bullying that will come with it. My ex earns 4 x my salary and has a large pension, I am now on Universal Credit, (I also work almost full time as well as care for our children) and struggling financially. I have debt accrued in our marriage, he has paid most of his off, and I have a very small pension as I didn't work for a while after having our children.
Would a court be able to say that the consent order drawn up is unfair? I'm worried about negotiations if so and how that would end up for me. Thank you.

Hi Lydia,
Thank you for getting in touch with amicable.
Whilst a judge can query a consent order, there’s also the chance that it’s approved. I would suggest trying a negotiation process such as amicable, where a neutral Divorce Specialist can look at your agreement and explain whether it’s fair and balanced in terms of the law.
You can book a free 15-minute advice call with a Divorce Specialist, who will be able to explain the options available.
Best wishes, Tatiana
