Dont rely on a random websitelike this for this sort of thing, tell her she needs legal advice and to see a lawyer.
You are saying on here what she has told you, and only what she wants you to hear.
Behind closed doors etc......
Lawyer, face to face is the only way.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0 -
Have they got separate bank accounts, if not your friend needs to do that urgently0

OP there are a wide range of factors to take into consideration; length of marriage, children, division of financial assets. As previously advised she needs a solicitor, but more especially an experienced divorce solicitor to fight her corner.0
