Per Curiam.

In this appeal from the judgment dissolving the marriage of the parties, the defendant challenges the court’s division of assets, orders for support for two minor children, award of counsel fees to the plaintiff, and the fairness of the trial. “The trial court has broad discretion in domestic relations cases, and our review of the exercise of such discretion is limited to whether the trial court correctly applied the law and could reasonably have concluded as it did.

A review of the record makes it clear that the division of assets [and other orders were] . . . neither arbitrary nor an abuse of discretion. Anderson v.

The defendant makes an additional claim, namely, that he was deprived of a fair trial as a result of the court’s supposedly verbatim adoption of the plaintiff’s memorandum of request for orders. We disagree. The *118court did not adopt the plaintiffs proposal verbatim. It made several changes from the requested orders in issuing its orders. Furthermore, “[t]he ultimate test as to the adequacy of findings is whether they are sufficiently comprehensive and pertinent to the issues to provide a basis for the decision and whether they are supported by evidence.” Grayson v.
