Financial Settlements   

It is often the case that the financial consequences of separation or divorce cause the most worry, and the greatest opportunity for hostility.

The laws relating to the division of matrimonial property are complex and not widely known. There are very few rules which say how property should be divided, but simply numerous guidelines. Every case is different, and there is rarely a single correct outcome.

Ultimately, a judge may decide what division of property is fair and reasonable, but an experienced lawyer will be able to advise you about the likely outcome and help you negotiate a settlement without costly court proceedings. We have extensive experience of financial settlements involving property, businesses and pensions, and can help you resolve these issues, whether by negotiation, mediation or as a last resort through court proceedings.

Our team of lawyers will give you professional and independent advice about your entitlements, and will help you find practical solutions to the division of your assets.
