Are you divorced?

[BrilloPad]

Following on from Bagpuss's (jolly interesting) question about divorce rate among contractors - thought I might try a poll to see how cuk divorce rate compares to national average.

Poll coming up - please wait at least a picosecong before whining its not there.....

[BrilloPad]

No post of complaint for no poll? you lot are slipping!

It's too early and the coffee hasn't kicked in yet.

Nice AndyW option BTW but I have voted properly this time.

Yes. Twice. Next.

[BrilloPad]

Yes. Twice. Next.

You still only get 1 vote. Unless you are an admin when you can have as many as you like. apparently.

4 years slighter grey area - she needs over 7 years to get to the max.

Are there any children? Any pre-nup? What assets did you each bring into the marriage? What assets are there now?

White vs White(2000) has a presumption of 50/50....

[BrilloPad]

I believe the national average is about 33%?

depends of how you go about it. if its amicable then you could just split everything 50/50.

i did 3 years and sold the house, split the profits, didn't bother with solicitors, got him to pay for the divorce paperwork though

if it looks like it could get nasty then speak to a solicitor asap
