I would definitely recommend each party seeks separate legal advice before proceeding. A high st solicitor should give you enough advice in a one hour fixed rate consultation. You should state that that is all you require right now, rather than leaving it open ended re how much work you might want.Are both names listed as owners? Are there children involved? Is it acrimonious? If both parties jointly own house, then whether you stay there or not matters less. You can live in separate rooms and that will count as not living together for divorce purposes. As both parties are owners, dividing it will be easier.If there are children, the party which moves out may find themselves with greater difficulty re custody. So if one did move out, get agreement from the staying parent regarding how many days, holidays, paying bills etc. And stick to it 100pc.If there are children then you probably want to involve a solicitor, or if you have one party financially dependent on the other.You can do a divorce yourself, if you both agree on dividing property. All the forms are on the web, though it does cost to submit the forms to the court.The more you agree on prior to seeking legal advice, the cheaper it will be.
