What Is a Financial Remedy in Divorce?
A financial remedy is a legal process used by the Family Court to resolve financial disputes between spouses or civil partners after divorce. It determines how assets such as:
Property and real estate
Savings and investments
Pensions
Business interests
Income and maintenance
…are divided between the parties.
The court considers factors including:
Length of the marriage or civil partnership
Financial needs of each party
Contributions made during the relationship
Welfare of any children
Income, assets, and earning capacity
Our matrimonial finance barristers provide expert guidance on how these factors affect the likely financial outcome.
