'The emotional ramifications of the process are horrendous' nofaultdivorce
Emma Sutcliffe is a medical writer from Scarborough who hopes that"no blame" custody in family court hearings will be the next natural step.
"I would have loved if the no-fault divorce option had been available when I was going through the proceedings. I was quite lucky because I earn a decent living so I could afford to find money to deal with the counter-petition. The divorce though took a whole year.
"It was an amicable split so we didn't want to accuse each other of bad behaviour. So the only way I could see to get it done quickly and easily was to admit to adultery, even though we both knew it wasn't true. It was an official form and I had to lie on it. I didn't want to be put in that position."
"I used a lawyer online who was both extremely reasonable and so helpful but you really have to jump through hoops.
