How Our Online Consent Order Services Work: Process, Timelines, and What’s Included

Quick Answer

Our online consent order service is designed for couples who have already reached a financial agreement and simply need that agreement professionally drafted into a legally binding Consent Order. From the moment you place your order, we manage the process from legal drafting through to court submission, keeping you updated until your Consent Order has been approved by the court.

Step 1

Place Your Order & Complete Your Questionnaire

Once your order has been placed, you’ll receive access to your secure online dashboard where you can complete our guided questionnaire at your own pace. The questionnaire gathers the information required to prepare your Consent Order, including details of your financial agreement, property, pensions and other assets.

You can save your progress at any time, return whenever convenient and upload supporting documents securely through your dashboard. If you have any questions while completing the information, our support team and AI assistant are available to help.

Step 2

Professional Legal Drafting

Once your completed questionnaire has been received, your information is reviewed by our legal drafting team. Your financial agreement is then professionally drafted into a Consent Order, together with the accompanying court documentation required for submission.

If further information or clarification is required, we’ll contact you promptly to avoid unnecessary delays and ensure your documents accurately reflect the agreement you’ve reached.

Step 3

Review & Approval

Once drafted, the documents are sent to both parties for review. This allows you to check that every aspect of your financial agreement has been accurately recorded before anything is submitted to court.

If any amendments are required, they’ll be made before the documents are signed electronically by both parties using our secure digital signing platform.

Step 4

Court Submission & Approval

After both parties have signed, you follow our guidance documents to submit your application to the Family Court. Our team manages the administrative process, monitors progress, and deals with any routine court correspondence until a judge has considered the application.

Once your Consent Order has been approved and sealed by the court, we’ll send you a copy for your records, giving you the reassurance that your financial agreement has become legally binding.
