Do you need to fill in cop 3 capacity form to apply for financial deputyship?

It is great to hear that you managed to get divorced and resolved the financial matters amicably using mediation. What should have then happened is that the agreed terms were put into a Consent Order, and sent off to the Divorce court with a short financial information form and court fee of £50, to get the terms made binding on you both. Then you would have needed solicitors to prepared formal Transfer Deeds to effect the transfers of property - which are registered with HM Land Registry.

It is not clear how much time as elapsed, but I would strongly suggest you now take tax advice (as well as legal advice) as there can be tax implications of transfers of property - even between spouses.

It make seem complicated but it should all be possible of being resolved with paperwork and no actual court hearings.

I hope this helps.

How can we cross - transfer deeds after divorce?

In England & Wales (I am unsure of the position under Scottish law) there is no financial limits on who can enter into a Pre-nuptial Agreement. They are voluntary agreements parties enter into before getting married, to try and provide some reassurance as to how financial matters between them would be dealt with if they ever separated or divorced.

There are strict requirements necessary to ensure any such agreement is legally binding on you both so it is vital to speak to a family law specialist.
