This insightful book lets you in on the industry secrets for a quick and easy divorce, including:

  • The different ways to divorce and how to work out what is best for your situation.
  • How to keep your divorce costs as low as possible, and even divorce for free.
  • Using online divorce services to avoid wasting your hard-earned money on expensive solicitors.
  • When to use a solicitor, and how to get the best from them to divorce on your terms, not theirs.
  • Understanding financial settlements, and why you might need one.

Whatever your situation, you want the pain of divorce to stop. This book contains everything you need to know to make the right decisions so that you can divorce as quickly, painlessly, and cheaply as possible and move on with your life.
