old mortgage endowment policy

[barrie]

i have an endowment policy that is due to mature in 2010, but I have just got divorced and the policy is in both our names. We would like to keep paying the policy till it matures, then split the pay-out, - we are both in agreement with this - as if we cash it in now we will get very little, is this legal. Any advice would be appreciated.
The Policy has not been linked to a mortgage for some years.

Thanks in advance
Barrie

yes,its quite legal,if it is still linked to the mortgage,then that will have to be paid,then you can split the remainder how you like.
