Publisher's Synopsis
Getting married is easy - you sign a form. Getting divorced can be more difficult - apart from the emotional distress, there are complicated matters of property, custody and more to be dealt with. Increasingly people are finding, especially with recent cuts in legal aid, that solicitors' fees are an extra burden to be dealt with -but it needn't be that way. HOW TO DO YOUR OWN DIVORCE leads you step-by-step through the legal labyrinth, helping you cut down the red tape and advising you on the procedures to be followed and the forms to be filled in. Practising family-law barrister Jeremy Rosenblatt deals clearly and comprehensively with all the issues, and this new edition is updated to include the latest information on legal aid and the controversial Child Support Act. Scottish divorce law is also dealt with. This invaluable book allows you to sort out your affairs amicably and painlessly, allowing you to get on with the rest of your life - and you don't have to be a solicitor to do that.
