Divorce Is Challenging
We Guide You On A Road
To Consentual Divorce
The Key Information & Tools You Need
What We Do.
Seperation and divorce is commonly ranked as the most stressful and traumatic life process you can go through. But the reality is that divorce does not have to be bitter and twisted, it does not have to be unbearably stressful, and it does not have to be incredibly expensive.
In fact, divorce can be respectful, it can be done cost effectively, and it can be ultimately peaceful. A Consent Dirvorce means both parties can agree on the divorce settlement terms outside of court proceedings, which allows you to to get through the divorce process as quickly as possible and without layers of legal teams. In most countries, you could take a consentual divorce from start to finish in as little as six weeks. But you need to know the pitfalls.
​
Not many couples get a chance to take a route of Divorce by Consent. It is common that couples successfully agree their divorce terms in principle, but when they involve attorneys & lawyers or solicitors & barristers to complete preparation of proceedings, things fail. Often when legal teams get their hands on a case, they create sides, and often cause fallout. You will continually hear people say "make sure you keep your divorce away from the legal people" or "keep away from the wigs"! We have several example stories to share that show why this is the case. Divorce is a technical and emotional journey, and unfortunately, many professionals know how to derail even your best efforts.
There are excellent legal professionals in the world, who will facilitate a Consent Divorce in minimal time and with minimal cost. However, there are also legal professionals who only want to line their pockets and will resort to poor advice that does not follow constitutional law, or who untangle a Consent Agreement in pursuit of creating a court hearing or in pursuit of chargeable hours.
Through our resources, we endeavour to take you on a journey of peaceful mediation and unlimately to a peaceful Consent Divorce, to keep you clear of any fallout and poor legal advice, in the best interest of the couple, their family and the family assets.

We help you understand the emotional divorce rollercoaster, and to outline the possibility of self mediation. We aim to equip you with all the tools you need to manage the Consent Dircorce process.

"Divorce is a personal battleground, an ultimate journey of life discovery and personal resolve, that will carry you to the deepest and darkest places of despair. But the deeper the pain, the greater the clarity. This clarity will provide you with solutions, and a road to new beginnings. For me, it also became a journey of transformation, resolution and peace. Divorce is deeply emotional, it has many stages, and requires time to process. On top, there is a lot of new learnings required about the overall legal process, and navigating this part of the journey can be challenging, turbulant and often confusing. I was fortunate to navigate a Consentual Divorce, but when I searched online for guidance on the process, I could not find any resources. My research work became a body of wisdom and knowledge I needed to share"
