I’m with peasblossom he might have debts that you aren’t aware of, pension contributions can be a factor in a divorce, you need a Solicitor soon as possible.

Sounds like desertion to me after, 2 yrs divorce is straightforward unless it is contested which is 5 yrs, you still have a claim on each other’s assets, property, investments savings etc. Depending on circumstances you could do nothing, if you agree between you how to share everything, you don’t need a solicitor so just court costs.

No house, no pensions, no bank accounts, savings, no debts? Who knows what he’s spent since he left. If you’re married they’re yours too.

Get a solicitor. A real one that will look after your interests.

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
