Divorce - letter stopping pension draw down

[SomewhereOnlyIKnow]

I’m waiting for no fault in April. Do I have to wait until I file before I send the letter ?
Is the letter absolutely binding so it can’t be drawn down, or is there a way round it ?

Anyone ?

No one understands what letter you are referring to.

A letter cannot stop a pension drawdown.

My solicitor said he could prevent it.

I’m only going off what I was told.

When someone tells you something, especially something as important as this, I really think it matters to understand the steps which are required to make sure it does happen or does work.

Ask your solicitor to outline the steps that need to be taken and who will take them.

It's the only way to be sure. Fair enough to ask on MN for background info, but it's your life, you are the one who will suffer if it doesn't work.

In your situation, I would want to understand more.

Sounds like he meant a court injunction, which is very different to a letter and would cost thousands.

No, it was definitely letter.
But thanks for all your input.

If you're paying for a solicitor then take his advice, not ours.

@PurpleCarpets Absolutely I agreed to take the advice of the solicitor you are paying. OP didn't seem to understand very much about it, my suggestion was to ask more in order to make sure she understood the outcome of the action proposed by the solicitor.

Anyone not prepared to explain, would not be the right people for me.

No lawyer can explain.

What OP is describing doesn't make sense, so I suspect OP has misunderstood something that has been said to her by her solicitor.
