FAQs

What happens if we can’t agree on the house?2025-08-11T12:51:28+01:00

The court can order the sale of a property, transfer it to one partner or delay sale until a specific event (e.g. children reaching 18).

Who is responsible for debts after divorce?2025-08-11T12:51:14+01:00

If the debt was incurred for family benefit, both partners may be jointly responsible, even if the debt is in one name only.

Do I need to disclose all my finances?2025-08-11T12:51:00+01:00

Yes. Full and honest financial disclosure is required. Hiding assets is unlawful and can lead to serious consequences.

Does divorce automatically end our financial ties?2025-08-11T12:50:36+01:00

No. A divorce only ends your legal relationship as spouses. A separate court order (consent order or financial remedy order) is needed to settle financial matters.

Is a 50/50 split guaranteed?2025-08-11T12:50:48+01:00

Not necessarily. The court aims for fairness, which may result in unequal splits depending on income, housing needs and children’s welfare.
