Hi everyone,
my husband left me almost a year ago, we had a petty argument and I came home one day and he had left me no note nothing, 4 months later he asked me for a explanation confused . apparently my son had told him I wanted him out so he blames me for the break up because after 27 years you just pack up and leave if you don't want to lol. Anyway he as now moved in with the eldest son and family in a large house neither of them can afford without each other, so no intentions of getting back together, although I don't want him back anyway. Was just wondering if anyone had any advice on divorce and the cheapest way to go about it, we have nothing to split and the children are all adults so should be quite straight forward but I'm not sure where to start or if you have to wait a certain amount of time, seen some companys online but not sure if they are dodgy, tia

I did my own divorce. All finances had been talked through & settled amicably between us.
I downloaded the forms from the Gov.uk website, filled it all in & took it to the County Court. The staff were very helpful. Divorce went through without a hitch. It was all sorted out very quickly.
Do some research on Gov.uk & print out the forms. You'll be fine. Just go for it.

Yes well it's easier as my children have grown, rented house no savings, we have always had separate bank accounts, I know he won't want any of the furniture, the car is his, he probably as a pension with work but I don't want anything, happy now how things are only the divorce is needed. Did you divorce before 2 years ?

I used quickie divorce. com. Best thing i ever did. Just make sure you take control and sign the paperwork when you want not when he wants it. Remember if you never marry again you will be entitled to a share of his state pension, just contact DWP and they will sort it out.

Make it legal, you will be responsible if he racks up debts etc. Get free advice as to cheapest option. Good luck.
