This article examines the practice of negotiated out‐of‐court settlements in divorce proceedings. Despite being common, such settlements are relatively poorly examined. Here, evidence on the conduct of such settlements in Scotland is explored in an attempt to shed light on the benefits and defects of such agreements. A representative sample of such agreements is considered and evidence from a number of telephone interviews with parties to such agreements adds depth to the analysis
