Understanding financial arrangements after separation
When a marriage or civil partnership ends, financial matters must be resolved separately from the divorce itself. This can include decisions about property, savings, pensions, business interests and ongoing maintenance.
The Court considers a range of factors when determining financial settlements, including the length of the marriage, financial contributions, future earning capacity and the needs of any children.
Reaching agreement through negotiation can often reduce stress and costs. However, where agreement is not possible, the Court has the power to make binding financial orders.
Our role is to provide realistic advice, negotiate effectively on your behalf and ensure your position is properly protected.
