Financial provision upon divorce
Solicitors for divorce finances
When you are facing a divorce or the end of a civil partnership you need to know where you stand financially. You may be concerned about your immediate financial security or responsibilities, unclear on how to approach the distribution of assets or worried about the kind of financial settlement you might end up with.
Family law work and the financial issues that arise upon the breakdown of a marriage or civil partnership has become increasingly complex. The family home, businesses, pensions, trusts, international issues and indeed, whatever the issues you are facing, we never lose sight of the fact that every family breakdown is different and what you need from us is an understanding of your personal circumstances and your objectives.
Our specialist family law team are highly experienced in dealing with complex and challenging financial cases. It is not just about understanding the law. We listen carefully to what you say about your circumstances so that we are clear on what matters most to you.
Proactive and rounded approach
When dealing with financial matters in family law we are committed to reducing conflict where possible. If a court application is necessary, we will be proactive in pursuing such application to obtain the best possible outcome for you. At each stage of your case, we will also undertake a costs against benefit analysis so that you are only pursuing a court application because it is beneficial for you and your family
We can also call on expertise from our colleagues in other disciplines across our firm. This means that we can assist you with other matters arising from the breakdown of a marriage or civil partnership such as the transfer of a family home or other property, transfer of a business, setting up a trust or making or changing your Will. We can support you in a broad range of areas according to your specific circumstances.
There can sometimes be an overlap between financial provision and arrangement for children. Your divorce and family lawyer will deal with all aspects of your case and will be able to advise you on how any financial settlement might impact children’s issues and when it might be necessary to finalise the arrangements for the children before settling the financial aspects of your case.
