A mate of mine
was in the same positon. Just wanted to make it all formal. He did it himself.

Shows you here how to go through the various stages. It took him a while to do, but no longer than it would've if he went via a solicitor. He paid the court fees direct to the courts himself, they sorted out the paperwork. All in all I think he had to fill in about three forms and that was it.

He got his decre absolute through a few weeks ago without ever going to a solicitor - he, like you, had already sorted everything out with his ex and just wanted to get on with his life.

Same here...
...although I'd recommend both parties signing a document finalizing the deal to pre-empt any claims later down the line.
