Court Fees:
These are not included in our service price. All divorces in England and Wales require a mandatory court fee of £628 to cover the court’s staff costs. If you have savings of less than £4,250 and a monthly income before tax of less than £1420, you may not have to pay any Court Fees. There is also a £62 court fee for the clean break order.
Help with Fees Queries:
The help with fees process is a separate application managed between you, the court, and the Department of Work and Pensions. We do not handle these queries as part of our service.
Contact with your spouse:
We only work with you with this service. If you would like us to engage with your spouse too, take a look at our Managed Divorce for Couples with Clean Break Order.
Collecting Consent Order Information From Your Spouse:
If you would like us to send your spouse a clean break order questionnaire to complete and for us to collate your details, you can add a Respondent Questionnaire Service.
Asset Transfers and Child Maintenance:
Any sale or transfer of assets and liabilities or child maintenance payments are not included in this service. For these needs, you will require our Consent Order
Financial Agreement Support
This service is for couples who have already agreed how they want to divide their finances.
If you haven’t reached an agreement yet, our Guided Financial Agreement service can help you work through the financial issues and reach an agreement before we prepare your Consent Order.
The Guided Financial Agreement service costs £799 and includes separate calls with each of you to understand your circumstances, identify the areas that need resolving and help you work towards an agreement that can then be made legally binding.
Unfair Equity Split Statements:
Providing statements to the court when your equity split is unfair without good reason is not included. If you present an unfair agreement and insist on submitting it to the court, the court will likely reject your application and request a statement on why you believe the agreement to be fair. In this situation, we offer a Statement Service where we will prepare the necessary statements and deal with the court on your behalf.
Clean Break Order Amendments:
Amendments to the clean break order if either party changes their mind or in the event of any alterations to the agreement are not included in our service. In this case there will be a change fee of £95.
