Posting mainly for traffic. ...unfortunately it looks like my marriage is close to breaking down
I recently had a free 30 minute appointment with a family solicitor as I wanted to know where me and my two ds (5 &7) would stand financially, should it come to this. I don't think either myself of OH could afford to take on the mortgage individually so we would probably have to sell and both downsize. I the asked the solicitor whether I would be likely to receive a larger share in the equity, due to me presumably being the resident parent. She was very vague with her response. I realise that it probably depends on individual circumstances and I am hoping to be in a position next month to have a longer, paid for appointment to discuss further. Until then I am interested to know what agreements others have reached / been granted during divorce settlements. I would be so grateful if any divorced mns would be so kind as to share the general outcome and a bit about the circumstances (ie how much equity was there, whether you were both working, how many children you have, whether you both put an equal amount into your home initially...).
