Assisted Consent Order Service

If you and your partner decide to separate you’ll need to work out how you plan on dividing your finances; such as any money, property, pensions and debt.

If you have children, you’ll need to make arrangements for them, such as where they will live and how you will parent moving forwards.

You will also need to go through the legal steps necessary to get divorced and make your financial arrangements legally binding.

Our Assisted Consent Order Service is the right option for you if you have come to a full agreement and want to discuss it with a divorce specialist. Our divorce specialist will help you understand what the court thinks is fair and help you prepare explanations about your agreement so a judge can approve your agreement and make it legally binding.

You will need to use this service rather than our basic Consent Order Service if you have an agreement involving complex assets (more than one property or assets over £2m or a business to divide/discuss).
