Yes, you can however, irrespective of the size of the assets, it is always advisable to resolve the financial issues by having a Consent Order. This is a legally binding document designed to protect present and future assets irrespective of whether these assets are large or modest. You never know when your fortunes will change, and it is a good idea to protect that asset without the worry that your former spouse makes a claim on it. Without a Consent Order, you will always remain open to financial proceedings even after the final order (formerly Decree Absolute) is granted.
