10 financial planning tips for divorce
By Will Grahame-Clarke, 5 Jan 18
Building up your savings and reviewing your will are among the steps Hargreaves Lansdown has recommended for individuals considering divorce.
Try to agree things between yourselves: There will usually be assets and debts to divide. There may also be children, in which case you will need to agree who they live with, access, and maintenance.
As soon as lawyers get involved, you will typically pay over £200 ($271, €225) an hour for their services, so the less they do, the less it will cost you both.
Try and agree what you can without a lawyer in the room.
