Thanks all, found a solicitor which is based between my home and my contract location at the moment, he is also willing to meet me early in the morning i.e. just before 8 am so that I don't have to take time off work.
As for the kids, I know that my other half would want the kids to stay with me, its not a problem they are well into their teens and would be off to Uni in 2-3 years - I know she wont fight me for custody because the kids will also prefer to live with me.
Re the financing my thoughts are: should propose buying out my share of the house and the company (with the existing mortgage taken into consideration)
For example: house worth £500 K
Mortgage worth £100 K
Will try my best to get a mortgage increase and offer £200 K then some of what I have int he company( or whatever the solicitor recommends) hopefully this would be a final payment - no more for extra alimony.
Hope am not being over-optimistic here.Comment
