    "We sat down and amicably sorted things and everything was going ok until the solicitors got involved"

    Sometimes client's stop being amicable once they are told their rights. Solicitors have a duty to tell their client's their proper rights and this is often to the detriment of the other party.

    I am sorry to hear that you were not happy with your service but most are only doing their job.

    As regards the two pages to your one page, you have obviously changed your options in your UserCP (control panel). The forum default is to view 10 posts per page whereas you have obviously changed it to more. I have mine set to the maximum of 40 posts per page.

    As me and the mrs are still talking - I (we) want to know what is the 1st stage to get the ball rolling ... without using a solicitor. I found this website http://www.lawonline.ltd.uk/ does anyone have any experience of it or reviews...

    I could get a divorce pack from tescos - they give loyalty points aswell!
