There are pitfalls but how to guess which you need to know about?.
Probably the best way forward is for you to post what is happening,
current situation ect and then wiki peeps will advise at each stage.
Many go it alone these days simply because they cannot afford the
costs, some stay on after divorce to help others, then of course we have a
few legal professionals on site, those who have solicitor on their profile
are actually
solicitors (thanks to you all) wiki checks
all legal professionals out when they join.
Best of luck to
you.
