Hello MN users.
Please can anyone who has had to go down the court route as no other way to get financial order as the other person is non engaging intentionally advise me if the following is correct process? Feel free to correct me with any advice you which will be gratefully appreciated.
Attempt mediation or get MIAM (can it be done online?)
Apply to court & pay £300 court fee (which forms???)
Pay solicitors/barrister fees
Adhere to court timeline/schedule (anything more to know here?)
Submit form E with evidence
Prepare bundle (is this for applicant?)
Attend FDA, FDR & final hearing
Where do I stand if the other party refuses to engage? Refuses disclosure?
NB - I am in the US and other party (refuse to call him my husband) is in the UK. Is this possible to do all online or do I need to catch flights to UK for court hearings etc?
I want clean break and share of his pension as no other assets to divide.
The only reason I have the above knowledge is because my best friend lives in the UK and has given me the advice but unsure how accurate it is!
Divorce issued and finalized by UK court as other party applied then finalized it without financial order
