Where do I stand?

Hi, My wife and I are splitting up and we both want the divorce to be settle quickly. We agree on this and solicitors have given an indication of approx 8 weeks. However I am not in a position to pay any settlement (we havent agreed on one yet) so my question is: If the divorce is finalised and Nisi / Absolute etc granted, does my soon to be ex have any timescales to legally request financial settlement? Or once the divorce is finalised, is that it? Thanks

Well from what I know, my Solicitor told me that no divorce could be finalised till it had been agreed by both parties(and even to court) the financial side. Sorry. know how you feel.

This is the same reply you will get from my side too as, it is important to first settle down the things well by mutual understanding, and than move further.

I know legal advice is very much required and they will only help you when both the parties get ready.

Thanks
