Divorce - the cheapest option isn't always the best option.

The president of the Law Society was recently questioned about his thoughts on internet divorce; he stated that “the cheapest option is not always the best” and that “online divorce is not suitable for cases where there is an imbalance of power between the spouses, or where a spouse is withholding information.” Without a solicitor how do you know if your spouse is withholding information? How do you address the imbalance of power without external influence?

A Managing Director from an online divorce company also commented recently saying that “we recommend people seek advice from solicitors...we can’t give advice”.

Would you be tempted to have a “cheap” divorce online? Can year's of marriage really be ended in such a simple way? Can your assets be split that easily?
