A Consent Order is the legal document which finalises financial claims on divorce. There is normally a clause which states " in full and final settlement of all claims which either party has against the other". Without this the door is always open to go back to Court to make a claim.
Who does not need a Consent Order:
1. Anyone with no money or assets and no prospect of earning money or assets, including a pension in the future
2. Anyone who fully trusts their ex.
A Consent Order is filed with the Court and checked by a Judge. If the Judge has any questions or concerns he will either write to the parties or call them in for a Hearing. Once a Consent Order is sealed by the Court it is very difficult to have it set aside.
