Financial clean break order
I had been divorced for a couple of years but never got around to completing the financial consent and. Lean break order. After finally getting to a place where me and my ex partner were amicable, I didn’t want that to be disrupted but needed to get the clean break order in place to protect myself financially for the future. After speaking with a number of solicitors, I felt that Alex really understood how important it was to keep the relationship amicable and also make things as easy as possible for me as the idea of opening up financial discussions with my ex again was also causing me stress. Alex couldn’t have made the process any easier for me. Really pleasant to deal with and always extremely helpful as were Maddie and Carol and all of the staff at Butcher and Barlow. Alex got the order approved at first time of asking and her experience in this field was evident throughout the process. Thanks to Alex and the team, I would recommend you any time anybody needs your services.
