Do it yourself Divorce

sassy_one

My divorce was £80, and yes I did have a divorce solicitor acting on everything for me, I just had to sign forms and send them back to her, she sorted it all!
In the end I was refunded £50 so I only paid £30, I should have got that back from HM Courts but they failed to send me my refund and by the time I contacted them, the 6 months I have to apply for a refund had passed.


Reason mine was free was because I applied for all costs at the start of proceedings to be sent to my ex.

I'd heard you could get it done online for about £40 or something.....is that a myth?.....or are there ways of doing it this way (and more to the point, ways of doing it this cheap)??? .....thanks

The online charges don't usually include the court fees, so really you are just paying £40 or whatever for someone to fill the form in for you.
