  Getting married is easy - you sign a form. Getting divorced can be more difficult - apart from the emotional distress, there are complicated matters of property, custody and more to be dealt with. Increasingly, people are finding, especially with recent cuts in legal aid, that solicitor's fees are an extra burden to be dealt with - but it needn't be that way. This book leads you step-by-step through the legal labyrinth, helping you cut down the red tape and advising you on the procedures to be followed and the forms to be filled in. This new edition is updated to include the latest information on legal aid and the controversial Child Support Act. Scottish divorce law is also dealt with.
