Our family team have recently launched a Consent/Clean Break Order Service for separating couples who have started their divorce and have agreed financial matters between them.
What is a financial clean break order and how do I get one?
At Greene & Greene we are seeing an increase in the number of people who navigate the divorce process themselves. However, they often overlook the fact that even if a financial agreement has been reached, the agreement needs to be approved by the Court. Otherwise, financial claims can still be made against the other, even after the Final Order of divorce.
That is because when getting divorced, the only way to achieve a legally effective and enforceable clean financial break, is to have your financial agreement ratified by the Court and embodied in a Consent Order (approved by a family court judge).
We can help you achieve this and therefore offer a bespoke Consent Order/Clean Break Order service for divorcing couples who have started their divorce and have agreed financial matters directly with their spouse.
What we will do:
- Organise an initial meeting with one party (by Teams if preferred) to take full instructions.
- Draft a bespoke Consent Order for you and your spouse to sign.
- Draft the D81 Statement of Information Form (if required, however you can do this yourself if you want to save costs).
- Lodge the documents on the HMCTS Portal for approval, on your behalf.
