Divorce - no kids (fortunately)
Although under the same roof, we have been living separate lives for a few years. Assuming we both agree to the financial split, can anyone tell me the steps we need to take to divorce with the minimum of fuss (and cost)? Do the online Divorce sites actually help/work or just provide blank documents? TIA :A
