The problem this solves

You're paying solicitors to explain
what you could already know

The financial settlement process has a predictable set of documents — letters, checklists, worksheets. None of them are secret or complex. But most people encounter them for the first time when their solicitor says "I've drafted this, here's my invoice." That is an expensive way to learn.

Without this pack
Solicitor drafts your opening letter from scratch
You don't know what a Consent Order needs until you ask
Pension CETV request delayed — you didn't know to ask for it
Clean break agreed without understanding what it means
Buyout figures miscalculated — costs not factored in
With this pack
Your solicitor reviews a draft — at a fraction of the cost
Consent Order prep checklist ready before the call
CETV request letter sent in week 6, not month 6
Clean break explainer read before any agreement is made
Buyout worksheet run before committing to a figure

Full contents

10 documents across 4 sections

Every document includes guidance notes explaining what each section is trying to achieve — not just a blank template to fill in. Read the guidance, understand the purpose, then complete your version.

Section 1 — Letters & Correspondence
1
Opening position letter
Your first formal proposal — sets the tone, establishes your position, opens negotiation on paper
2
Counter-proposal letter
Responding to a proposal you've received — acknowledges theirs, moves toward resolution
3
Chasing letter
When correspondence isn't being answered — creates a paper trail, sets deadlines, protects your position
Section 2 — Settlement Documents
4
Consent Order preparation checklist
Everything your solicitor needs from you before drafting — saves time, reduces cost
5
Clean break clause explainer
What it means, when it's appropriate, standard wording — before you agree to anything
6
Financial summary sign-off sheet
One-page record of agreed terms, signed by both parties — prevents disputes later
Section 3 — Pension Documents
7
CETV request letter
Formal request to pension providers — send this early, providers have 3 months to respond
8
Pension sharing order explainer
What it is, how it works, the three options compared — before any pension division is agreed
Section 4 — Property Documents
9
Property transfer checklist
Steps from agreed decision to completion — covers both sale and buyout paths
10
Buyout calculation worksheet
Net equity, leaving party's payment, total funds required — run the numbers before committing

How it works

Templates that explain themselves as you use them

Most template packs give you a blank document and leave you to work out what goes where. Every document in this pack includes guidance notes first — so you understand what you're trying to say, why it matters, and how to say it clearly.

1
Read the guidance notes first
Each document opens with context — when to use it, what each section is trying to achieve, and what to avoid. This is the part most people skip. Don't skip it.
2
Replace the placeholders
Every editable section is marked clearly in the template. Search for '[' before sending anything — a letter with an unfilled placeholder is unprofessional and undermines your position.
3
Have your solicitor review it
These templates are starting points, not finished legal documents. Your solicitor reviews a draft — at a fraction of the cost of asking them to draft from scratch. That's the model.
4
Send with confidence
All correspondence letters are marked Without Prejudice — protecting what you say in negotiations from being used against you in court. The guidance explains when this applies and why it matters.
