Obtain a Financial Order
Overview
Cases can conclude in two ways:
- Negotiation
This is the best way as it will save time and money. A Consent Order will be written up, and approved by a judge, if he believes it to be fair to both parties. - A Court Order
If negotiation doesn’t work, you will have to proceed to a Final Hearing. This is a hearing where both sides present arguments to the court, and the judge/court makes a final decision on the case. This conclusion will mean considerable financial costs for both parties, if they have used barristers.
What is the process for achieving a Consent Order?
- Both parties reach an agreement through negotiation
- The agreement is written up as a Consent Order
- The Consent Order is reviewed and signed if both parties are happy
- The order is submitted to the judge for final approval
- If the judge is satisfied, then it’s approved and comes into immediate effect.
What is the process for achieving a Financial Order?
- Once a Final Hearing is overd, the judge creates a Financial Order that is then read out to both parties
- The Financial Order is written up by court staff and sent to each spouse.
- There may be clauses that the parties can apply for, such as not selling the family home within a certain period.
