DIY divorce - any advice?

[AmericanPastoral]

Has anyone done a DIY divorce i.e .without using a solicitor? If so any tips? A friend of mine is divorcing her husband in what they hope will be an amicable way - no kids. Thanks.

I did my divorce myself. Had issues with exh not signing ANY paperwork but court were very helpful and gave good advice.

Recommend it. Much cheaper!! Very easy to complete the paperwork to from court.

I did. Amicable situation, 3 years post split. No financial ties and 50/50 shared childcare arrangement already agreed between us. Quick, simple and cheap.

Me and my ex had planned on doing that but it's alarming how quickly things can escalate and you need a solicitor. We have no kids either, just a house, but my god people change when they're going through a divorce. He did anyway!
