Malt 379 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 No, not the Dolly Parton song or the humourous Billy Connolly version, I'm on about the real thing! Just wondering if any of you guys have been there and done it and can let me know how to go about it all really? My ex and I have got no capital to sort out so things are pretty straightforward so I'm hoping to sort it out without getting the vultures (solicitors) involved..

Francie 6,368 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Sorry to hear that mate 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j j m 6,555 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 sorry to hear this mate went through 2 messy divorces years ago,basicaly walked away with nothing ,lost houses and cars ,if you have kids the judges come down on the side of your ex wife and the kids,which is fair enough as you dont want to see your kids on the streets,houses could not be sold untill kids were 16 bye then id mooved on and built a new life ,i always got full access to my kids,but my exs are best forgotten about 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dytkos 17,818 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 It all goes from being amiable to being a war when solicitors are involved, thats for sure. Good luck Malt. Cheers, D. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Waz 4,266 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Never married but was with my ex for a very long time, im happier than ive ever been in my life, taken me a while to get myself right & im almost there. The only thing I would change is the situation regarding my children, ive spent years going against logical reason and not listening to myself trying to do the right thing by them. Saw an article somewhere (probably The Mail) saying that divorce rates are down. Reason being that so many people marrying in recent times were possibly from divorced parents in the 70s (when divorce was made easier) & the 80s, so are trying extra hard to not fail in their own marriage due to 1st hand knowledge of what the kids go through. This is definately how I felt even though I didnt marry her (thank fcuk). My own parents are a complete waste of space as parents, goes as far as to say shocking.. So it made me go above and beyond solely for the benefit to my kids. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 47,398 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Malt, i suppose the logical place to start is the net and CAB mate.......if you can keep it all friendly then I don't see any reason for it to get complicated or expensive. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blackmaggie 3,376 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) You can get the papers from your local courts and fill them in yourself i think it takes between 6 weeks and three months before a judge looks at it and grants you a divorce providing its striaght forward i think it costs about 350 Edited February 14, 2017 by blackmaggie 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
