The aim, in every divorce case, should be avoiding court. By doing this you avoid stress, delays and considerable expenditure of funds.
If both parties work together with both the divorce and the financial issues by completing all the paperwork, and lodging it at court it is possible to never see the inside of the court building.
However, it is not just divorce that must be taken into consideration. It is often the finances that is significant and the court won’t necessarily look at the finances unless it is asked to do so. So, bare in mind parties can have the divorce resolved but not the finances. This is why a financial settlement should be in place at the same time as a divorce.
