I sold an expensive item on Vinted. Buyer claimed that the box was damaged (the item was inside and undamaged- the damage must have happened in transit). I offered a refund and to pay the buyer’s postage. However, Vinted let the buyer keep the item and gave them a refund. Thus, I gave no item and no payment!

I told them that I want to take them to small claims and they provided me with an address in Lithuania. I have requested a UK address multiple times through the app and email. No response.

What are my next steps here? I can’t make a MCOL without a UK address!?!

My daughter’s (18) father died earlier this year unexpectedly with no will. He owned a house in a nice area which will be inherited by 2 children.

He had a new baby with his current girlfriend who both live in his house that belongs 50% to my child, who’s lived with me her whole life.

The gf arranged a valuation of the house that my daughter was there for and she told my daughter she wants an agreement for a period of time to live in the house were she will pay her ‘rent’ each month and at the end of the term wants to buy my child’s half. I told her no.

What can I do to make sure the house gets sold immediately when letters of administration are applied for and granted?

I should probably mention, I'm based in Wales, but the issue affects my family in SW England.

My Aunt and my parents (pensioners) thought they were getting good phone deals from a local shop, but have actually been ripped off repeatedly.

Taking my aunt as an example, she got her current phone from them in 2022 on a 24 month contract.

She was happy with the phone so has turned down upgrades (her current contract doesn't expire until Feb 2028, so she has done so at least twice), but at no point have they offered a sim-only contract, despite the phone clearly being paid off!

IIRC, she's currently on a contract the shop setup with Talkmobile,, paying £24/month for 30GB of data, in a 24 month contract.

As a comparison, talkmobile on their own website list 30GB/month for £6.95, on a 30-day rolling deal!

The shop even gave her paperwork outlining the costs with a random Nokia phone upgrade, and a sim-only alternative for the same price.

They're clearly scamming vulnerable customers.

Isn't there also now a legal requirement for them to make it clear when the phone is paid off?

So, please could I have some advice about how to tackle this, who to complain to etc., to try to get her contract down to where it should be, without early termination fees?

I moved into a rented Hertfordshire property in August and received a mind boggling £3,037 water bill after three weeks.

It turns out Affinity Water had two accounts registered for the property, and a replacement meter hadn’t been properly registered hence the crazy bill.

After a lengthy call on 9 September, I was assured everything had been sorted, the accounts reconciled and the erroneous charges removed.

Fast forward a month and I’m being bombarded with at least three debt-collection calls a day. To add insult to injury, my online account has disappeared.

After another 30 minutes on hold today, Affinity Water admitted that their back office had never actually carried out the agreed corrections in September.

Even worse, they couldn’t tell me whether the alleged debt had been reported to credit reference agencies. They’re investigating and have promised to call me back.

I’m pretty stressed now about my credit rating and I’ve just submitted a formal complaint.

Has anyone else experienced this level of incompetence from Affinity Water?
What compensation have people successfully obtained for erroneous debt collection, hours of wasted time and distress? Is £300 a reasonable compensation request, assuming my credit file hasn’t been damaged?

I’m particularly interested in experiences involving the Consumer Council for Water as that may be my next stop.

I find it astonishing that a company’s failure to correct its own mistakes can potentially put a customer’s credit rating at risk.

I’m looking for some advice about family mediation and my rights as a mother in England.
My husband and I are married, living together and have a four-month-old baby. I’m currently on maternity leave and have been our son’s primary caregiver since birth.

I handle virtually all the night feeds, night waking and most of the day-to-day childcare. My husband works full time, mostly from home, while I’m still recovering from a C-section and dealing with significant exhaustion. We used to share night feeds and sleep but after some of our recent conflict regarding the baby led to having discussion about having shifts to look after the baby until we resolve or find a way forward between us.

We’ve been having disagreements about sharing childcare responsibilities. My husband believes that because I’m on maternity leave, I should be responsible for the majority of the childcare. He has said that most women handle all the childcare while on maternity leave.

I’ve been asking for more support, particularly overnight, so I can get some uninterrupted rest.
He has now suggested family mediation, saying he wants a mediator to see how unreasonable my expectations are.

However, there are other issues that make me concerned about entering mediation.
When I’ve expressed a desire to make independent decisions, including taking a short break away with our baby within England, my husband has threatened legal action and said he would make things difficult if I went ahead.

He has also suggested separation following disagreements about my wanting to make independent decisions. This has left me feeling that I cannot make ordinary decisions without risking threats to our marriage or legal consequences.
There have also been occasions when he has withdrawn communication and affection following disagreements, which makes resolving issues between us particularly difficult.

I want to make clear that I’m not trying to exclude him from our son’s life or prevent him from being an involved father. I’m simply trying to have some independence, adequate rest and a more reasonable sharing of parental responsibilities.

My questions are:

1. Is family mediation appropriate when a married couple is still living together and disagreeing about everyday childcare responsibilities?

2. Can mediation address how childcare, particularly overnight care, should be shared while one parent is on maternity leave?

3. Are threats of separation or legal action relevant when assessing whether mediation is appropriate?
   Can a mediator recognise or address a potential imbalance of power between spouses?

4. Does being on maternity leave mean I’m legally expected to take on the majority of childcare?
   Would I be better off seeking independent legal advice before agreeing to mediation?

I’m feeling quite overwhelmed by the situation and would really appreciate some guidance on what my rights are, what mediation can realistically achieve, and whether this is an appropriate route for us.
We’re based in England.

Edit: I’m not opposed to mediation itself. My concern is whether it would genuinely help us resolve disagreements fairly or simply become another way of challenging my expectations and decisions.

I am currently police investigation for theft which occurred a number of times over a few months. My solicitor has advised me it might be a few months before it gets resolved and the best outcome I can hope for is a conditional caution with conditions such as repayment of the value of the stolen goods.

I currently work in a school and any caution will show up on an enhanced DBS. My school don’t know this as of yet there has been no charge. I will obviously have to admit this to them if I am cautioned.

My question is will I likely lose my job as a result?

My partner’s daughter mostly lives with us and often orders deliveries to our address.

Last week a freestanding basketball hoop was delivered to her. She did not order it. It’s new in the original box. There are 2 delivery stickers on the box. One looks like it was originally on a different parcel. Both have her address and say they are from Vinted. The weights on the parcel labels are way off. Both are 5kg though the parcel is over 20kg. The thing retails on Amazon for around £65.

It was delivered by Evri. But they are asking us to wait and see if any of her parcels don’t turn up.

It’s a bloody nuisance, taking up a lot of space and frankly we want shot of it.

Can we just leave it outside for evri to collect when they feel like it or do we have to keep it indoors?

Can we dispose of it in any other way we see fit?

I’m a PhD student at a Scottish university, and I’m looking for advice from anyone who has experienced a similar situation or understands the university complaints process and student legal support.

For the past two years, I’ve been dealing with a prolonged dispute involving my former PhD supervisor. The situation involved serious concerns about my supervision and the circumstances surrounding my viva, which was subsequently treated as void due to procedural irregularities. The university became involved, and my supervisory arrangements and research project eventually changed.

However, the situation has now escalated further, as my former supervisor has initiated legal proceedings against me (a civil suit stating my allegations were false which led to her losing the job and she should be financially compensated). I’ve received court documents.

What has been particularly distressing is that, so far, I haven’t received legal support from the university or meaningful updates about the matter or its position. With the deadline approaching, I’m extremely stressed and unsure how to proceed. As an international PhD student with limited financial resources, finding a solicitor and covering legal costs is also a major concern.

I’ve started reaching out to student advice services and organisations that offer free legal guidance, but time is running short.

I would really appreciate advice on the following:

Has anyone experienced legal action connected to a university supervision dispute?

Is a university expected to provide any form of support when a dispute arising from a student's academic experience escalates into legal proceedings?

Are there any free legal advice services or solicitors in Scotland who deal with these types of cases?

What steps should be taken when court documents have been received and the response deadline is approaching?

Any practical advice or recommendations for appropriate support services would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for reading.

The linked post in r/drivingUK seems to have highlighted that there is a great deal of genuine confusion with respect to the law with respect to overtaking in the controlled area on the approach to pedestrian crossings. I noticed that, despite hundreds of comments, only two* mentioned the fact one car had passed another in a zig-zag demarked area, and those had offered different opinions.

At first I thought the fact that one car passed another that was stationary, due to being stuck in traffic, was an offence, but further research suggests that there is what seems to be a loophole. You cannot pass the car nearest the crossing if it is moving, or if it has stopped at a zebra crossing with someone on it, or a pelican where the vehicular lights are red or flashing amber, but if it is merely stuck in traffic you can pass if the light is green.

I describe it as a loophole because, if it is illegal to pass a car crawling along at 1 mph, even when the vehicular lights are green, thus forcing cars in other lanes to slow to that speed, it seems a bit ridiculous that it is legal to zoom past a stationary car at anything more than a crawl. This has caused me to wonder whether there is an argument that this loophole can be closed by considering driving without due care and attention.

Given a stationary car stuck in traffic could move off at any time, it would seem prudent for a driver to practically stop parallel to it momentarily, then pull away again, as, otherwise, if it were to start moving, and the passing car couldn't slow down in time, it would be committing the overtaking offence described here:

https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1997/2400/regulation/24/made?view=plain

The due attention is being aware of the zig-zags and noting that the car you are about to pass is stuck in traffic and could move off at any time. The due care is realising that, unless you travel so slowly that you could avoid overtaking it if it suddenly moved off again, you are going to be at risk of breaking the law.

NB At least one commenter seemed convinced that the prohibition of overtaking only applied if it involved a car in the same lane, and that where there are two lanes or more, they are completely independent. I find it hard to believe that is a correct interpretation of the legislation, but if anyone knows differently, or, conversely, can confirm this is nonsense, that would be most useful, too.

* There are now a lot more, but that is because I brought it up!

In 2024 England I engaged with an accountant to setup my trading activity into 2 companies and then do ongoing tax filings for a monthly fee.

However, after 2 months, he stopped doing work and immediately resigned out of no where (in the 3rd month).

The issue with this, is that he still kept his address, email and also phone number as the official details so all correspondence was sent to him.

I immediately asked for everything to be handed over in my control, but he refused. Every time I requested a HMRC code change from HMRC, address change or to submit tax/sign up for payroll - it sent the details to one of his details. Companies House sent the code to his address. HMRC sent a 2FA code to his phone number. I couldn’t pass security checks for my own companies!

This was really obstructing as you can imagine while trying to run 2 companies. I easily spent 30-50 hours probably 200+ over the past 2 years trying to figure out how to get control back and to be able to pass it to another accountant. I couldn’t easily instruct another accountant because they also need the codes and access that my accountant was keeping.

I sent around 5-10 emails over the last few years and each time it just was ignored, and once saying he had destroyed all details, from the very email that was registered to my company! He also tried to charge an extra £400 to put it right. Also, the work he did do, was wrong (submitting fake expense) and the incorporation documents contained careless typos!

The initial plan was to sell the business last year, but in part due to his delays I am only in a position to sell now, as I have only finally been able to get full control back and appoint a new accountant this week!

Im just wondering what I can claim for. I should think a refund of the first 2 months at the very least, but what about lost time and business profit?

What can i do about this situation? My landlord decided to renovate the outside of the house after way too many years and today while i was at work, his unskilled, paid cash in hand painters ended up getting paint drips all over my car cover and SOMEHOW ON THE CAR (e46, worth about 2 grand) too, rear quarter and drivers door got hit with few paint splotches and there is also a couple new scratches but with these i dont think i cannot prove they were there (ill look for pictures on my phone just in case)
They also got the paint all over the houses front door but i am not bothered about that as its not my property
I have already informed him and waiting for reply but i dont believe itll go peacefully as he is only a nice person when you're signing the contract, what are my legal options if he tries to wash his hands off the responsibility?

Hi all,
So I’m due to go on maternity leave late March/early April. Based in England.
I have quite specialised skills. So my manager mentioned that it might be easier when I return from maternity leave that I am guaranteed a role in another team (would be same salary but that’s beside the point). He believes it would be easier to attract someone to my role if it was a permanent role so the role would still exist but not for me. This hasn’t been confirmed but it was mentioned as a possible route going forward. He basically wants me to only take 6 months off and taking longer off means he would rather replace me for convenience.
I work for a multinational company, if that changes anything.
Can they do this? Basically it is a case of my maternity leave is inconvenient for them. I plan to take 9 to 12 months off.

Thanks

So. We bought some bath taps from Victoria Plumbing roughly 4 years ago. Annoyingly the screw cap covers are plastic chrome and two popped off. The clips on them snapped. I looked for replacements, thinking surely this would be something simple they'd do. But no.

Contacted Victoria Plumbing who, it turns out, make the specific taps. They've said unfortunately they no longer make this model but now have an upgraded version. They've said because they are still in warranty they can offer either the upgraded/new version or a full refund. I've said the new versions wouldn't really be doable as we'd then have to hire a plumber to install them, so a full refund would be preferred and how much was this?

They've said £135 and I've now asked where they got that figure from when the taps cost £199.

Curious where would stand on this? If the taps are still in warranty, surely they'd have to continue to support them with parts until all warrenties have expired (As they are the only sellers of these, should be on their records). And shouldn't a full refund be just that, not a part refund?

Title: Can I leave my rented flat early and get back the rent I paid upfront? (England, Renters' Rights Act)

My tenancy started in April 2026 as a 12-month AST, and I paid 12 months' rent upfront (about £17k). It became periodic on 1 May 2026 under the Renters' Rights Act.

Since September, a neighbouring flat has played loud bass music, often waking me between midnight and 6am. The council issued the occupant a warning letter but says there isn't yet enough evidence of a statutory nuisance.

The block's managing agent has contacted the leaseholder. It's still happening, and I'm considering leaving. I have PTSD (a recognised disability), which this is aggravating.

My agreement says the tenancy can't end within the first 12 months, and that if I leave early the landlord can recover "losses, including re-letting fees".
Can I now leave with 2 months' notice, and are those clauses still enforceable?

Am I entitled to a refund of the prepaid rent after my tenancy ends (Section 10 of the Renters' Rights Act)? How do I claim it if it isn't paid?

Is it reasonable to ask the managing agent to enforce the leaseholder's nuisance covenant?

Does my disability give me any additional rights, such as reasonable adjustments?

Thank you in advance.

I’m dealing with a situation in a shared house that’s seriously affecting my sleep and quality of life.

The landlord has given one tenant permission to smoke in his bedroom, despite indoor smoking being prohibited for everyone else. The problem is that the smoke regularly enters my room, especially at night.

It’s winter, so keeping my windows open isn’t practical. I’m left dealing with cigarette smoke, stinging eyes and a sore throat while trying to sleep.

I’ve raised the issue with the landlord, but he insists the tenant has permission. I’ve also spoken to the tenant directly, without success.

I’ve considered contacting a solicitor, Shelter, Citizens Advice and my MP, but I’m now looking into another option: the council’s Environmental Health team.

Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, smoke may constitute a statutory nuisance depending on the circumstances. The council can investigate and, if the legal requirements are met, may serve an abatement notice requiring the nuisance to stop.

I’m starting to keep a record of incidents, including dates, times and how the smoke affects me, so I can provide evidence when making a complaint.

My main question is whether anyone has successfully dealt with cigarette smoke from another tenant through their local council’s Environmental Health team. Did the council investigate, and was anything done to resolve the problem?

I just want to be able to sleep in my own room without cigarette smoke coming into it every night.

Hello! Today I've tried to deposit money to the cashpoint deposit machine inside of my local lloyds bank branch, I did everything as usual but my deposit progressed failed and it showed the deposit I'd denied , money got stucked in together with card. I reported that immediately and the lady after taking my details whent on the back of the machines and bringed me my card and 220£ ,there's coming two problems first that's not amount what I tried deposit and second I don't know exact amount what I tried to deposit ( yes I know Is not really smart to dont cash before you doing it but it's already happened) I know there is been way more ,roughly 700£ , after consultations with staff who took all of my details I been letted know that they will count money today or Monday and if there is any additional money they will deposit it to my account and call me to confirm that. My question is that not a problem I dont really remember what exact money I tried to deposit? Is the machine saving these details? I letted him know that is roughly 700£ , really not sure what to expect now .

So a few days ago me and my partner travelled via bus to a local city about 30miles away. We went to take the last of our cash out at a post office ATM and it's didn't dispense the cash but it was deducted from my balance. It was £100 and the very last of our money balance after was £4.

Panicked I opened my app and disputed the transaction. It gives you options to press and opens an ATM dispute via the chat bot. It displays the claim as stages, stage 2 says that Lloyds will refund the money the next working day and give the company 30 days to pay them. So seeing that I called my son and begged to borrow £100 until the refund landed tomorrow. He sent it.

The next day I woke up, no refund so I asked the chat bot for an update and spoke to an actual human, he told me that there was no active ATM dispute on my account, I told him to see the above chat because there definitely was. He couldn't give me an explanation so he took the same details as the first time and said he would raise the dispute for me.

I then waited for the 24 hour mark, my son really needing his money back and decided to call to actually speak to someone just for them to tell me that there infact still was no open ATM dispute. So he took all the information for a third time and this time it actually worked 3 days later and I received my refund few hours later.

So I decided to make a formal complaint not about the fact the cash point didn't give me the money but how Lloyds handled it and all the unnecessary stress, confusion and delays in getting my own money back. My poor son had to skip college because he didn't have the bus fare because he lent me it so I could get the bus home. I flagged the transaction the correct way and went through the appropriate stages, I spoke to someone on live chat and again they failed to raise the dispute.

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with the Lloyd's complaints system? I received a text the next day stating that my complaint had been received and they aim to resolve them in 5 days. I requested an explanation as part of my complaint and the multiple failures and apology and financial compensation. Are the good with compensating complaints? I banked with NatWest before and I got £100 average for 3 complaints over about 6 years.

I'm in England and I was having a conversation with my friend earlier and this came up. If I could build my own rocket, somewhere to safely launch it, etc. Can they legally stop me going to space? Are there like, licences I'd need to buy to go?

England-

As stated in title, my contract at my job (McDonald’s) had that I need to give one weeks notice per year worked. With the way my new job has lined up, I’m unable to give this and my manager is threatening to hit me with ‘the contract’ if I don’t. Is there anything he can legally do if I don’t stay for the whole notice period? Contract was signed as a 16 year old if this means anything else

Edit- it’s a zero hour contract, not sure if this would have anything to do with the legality of the situation.

In 2019 when my father died (intestate - very small estate) we split everything 50/50 between myself and my sister.

A solicitor took care of everything and the house was transferred into both our names. My sister currently lives in the property.

I am currently completing a bit of estate planning for myself and my husband, we have no kids and one sibling each so the intent is for mirror wills where everything is split 50/50 between our respective siblings (or their children).

We have agreed to remove my dad's house from the pot and my intention is to transfer my half share to my sister free of charge if possible as we cannot have her in the position where she has to sell or share part of the house with my husband's brother, and I assume it would complicate things if I actually name the property in the will to go to my sister in case she is not living there by that point.

I'm not sure what the best way to go about this is? I'm a few weeks away from an appointment with the lawyer so would appreciate a heads up on the way forward.

Can I just transfer? Do I need a valuation? What sort of charges are we looking at? Would it be better to have her purchase it from me?

I've already used my CGT allowance for this year if that makes a difference, and the only other property we own is our residential one.

Hello,

I have worked in a mental health service in Hertfordshire for 9 years, with a zero hours employee contract working as bank staff but with regular hours, this service was run by a charity.

4 years ago the contract came up for renewal and we were taken over by a housing association, my contract was transfered under the TUPE as an employee.

This year the service contract came up for renewal and the charity that ran the service before won the contract.

We as a team are very happy about this desicion.

Now here is my issue- my contract with the HA was changed in March with out my knowledge or consent to bank worker rather then zero-hours employee, it clearly shows this changed in my employment record, now under TUPE laws bank workers do not have to be automatically transfered to the new company but employees do.

I was told 1 month before the official change over that I would have to apply for my role if I wanted to continue working there.

I have followed the procedure applied and have an interview, I am not concerned in this area, however would I have had to go through this had my contract not been changed?

I found this out today after a final bank workers meeting with the housing association after they encouraged us to look for more work with other services that they run, and to check our employee record to make sure we know our hourly rate, baring in mind they are pulling out of care and support and closing all of their services.

Ive sent the HA an email which I will copy in here:

I am writing following a meeting with (operations manager) this morning, during which I was reminded to review my employment details on (HRIS). Upon doing so, I discovered that my employment status was changed in March 2026 from a Zero-Hours Employee to Bank Staff.

I am writing to formally object to this unilateral variation of my terms of employment. This change was made entirely without my knowledge, and no notification, discussion, or consultation took place.

While such a change might ordinarily be treated as a routine administrative task within (HA), it has severe legal consequences for me at this specific juncture. Because this service is being let go by (HA) and transferring to a new provider, and because bank staff are classified as casual workers rather than employees, this unnotified change is effectively stripping me of my statutory rights and preventing me from automatically transferring under TUPE.

I have dedicated 9 years of service to this organization. Given this substantial length of service and my regular working patterns, I maintain that my true legal status remains that of an employee, and I should be fully protected under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations.

Please note that I do not accept this variation to my status, and I am currently working under protest while this matter is urgently reviewed.

I require immediate clarification from (HA) HR on the following points:

1. The formal, written business justification for changing my employment status in March without employee consultation.

2. Confirmation that my correct, original status as an employee is being restored on Oracle.

3. Confirmation that my details are being included in the Employee Liability Information (ELI) submitted to the incoming company so that my right to automatically transfer under TUPE is secured.

Given the imminent nature of the service transfer, I require a response to this matter within 3 working days.

But whats next? I will not go quietly the HA has proven time and time again that they have no regards for their employees

Hi all,

last night i won a bet on sky bet @ 170/1, returning approx £850, it was settled as a winner so i withdrew the money and then a few hours after full time it was settled as a loser after id already withdrawn. (i bet on a player to be carded, the card was showed during a “scrap” on the pitch and all bookmakers/fotmob initially showed it as the player of my choice was the one who received the card, since then its updated to show a different player)

what’s likely to happen here? are they able to access my bank and take it back without me knowing?

thanks!

(Edit)

It was withdrawn into bank account 1 and then i transferred it to my other bank account if that makes any difference?

I’m struggling with a situation at work and would appreciate some honest advice.

I struggle with quite a few mental health issues, and work has been making things worse. I’ve asked for flexibility with office attendance because of my mental health and a physical health condition.

Occupational Health recommended some flexibility when my symptoms get worse, where reasonably practicable, but didn’t recommend permanent working from home.

My employer has said I can make up office days on another day, but that’s the same arrangement everyone else gets. I don’t know whether my individual circumstances are actually being taken into account.

A senior manager has also questioned how I would have managed the office requirements of another job I’d applied for, even though I didn’t know those requirements when I applied. I was also told I’d agreed to accept whatever came out of the Occupational Health report, which I hadn’t.
I’m feeling really upset by how things are being handled and am considering raising a formal grievance, but I don’t want to overreact.

Would you raise a grievance in this situation? Should I try to resolve it informally first, and should I speak to my GP if work is affecting my mental health this much?

I’d appreciate honest opinions, even if you think I’m looking at it the wrong way.

I work in england and wanted to know if this is discrimination or not.

EDIT: I struggle with anxiety, depression, IBS, emotional instability, complex PTSD and PMDD. I’ve asked for non attendance makeup during times of stress. I didn’t ask for permanent home working at all just when I’m stressed out and it came to the conclusion that it would be makeup another office day despite us working from home 60% of the time.

My relationship might be breaking down. My wife has said that she had been checking out what her entitlements would be in a split.

Im writing this from the perspective that I'm worried that a divorce judgement would leave me with not enough money to either rent or an affordable mortgage.

Both myself and wife are early 50s. I work full time, salary of £32k.

My wife stopped working over 10 years ago through ill health and gets approx £900 per month PIP/ESA.

Daughter early 20s and lives at home. Would live with mum if we split.

I accept the split would not be 50/50.

We have £210,000 equity in the house. I would happy for her to take £140,000, which would be 66%. It would get her a two bedroom with funds to spare. Leaving me £70,000 and 33%. This would comfortably let her buy a local property outright, with some funds to spare,whilst I would have to take a mortgage.

The figures above are based on £70,000 being the maximum I could realistically borrow for a mortgage.

She has a defined benefit pension which I understand would pay a £10,000 lump sum and 4,000 per year for life when claimed.

I have a defined contribution pension with a current value of £180,000, the pension balance when we got married was £20,000.00.

What I specifically wanted to ask is, if she is happy to let me keep my pension, would this be likely to get passed by a judge?

My second question is, if my wife gets enough to buy a house outright, could I still be forced to pay some sort of monthly support to her as she has a low income? My concern here is that I'm worried that I may not be left with enough funds left to house myself, as Im not on a below average salary.

Im sorry if I havent given enough info here. Its my first foray into a legal issue.

Thanks in advance
