Divorce and spliting of Assests 

Family Finance

Our Family Finance team has extensive experience handling the full range of financial matters arising from the breakdown of family relationships. While we regularly act for husbands and wives during divorce proceedings, we also represent cohabiting partners, same-sex couples, children, parents, and third parties involved in financial disputes — including companies and trustees.

We provide strategic, practical advice tailored to each client’s circumstances, with particular expertise in:

  • Business assets, including complex and farming interests

  • Family trusts, both within the UK and internationally

  • Bankruptcy and Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs)

  • Hidden or undisclosed assets

  • Injunctions and cases involving dissipation of assets

  • Short marriages

  • Military pensions

  • Cases involving serious misconduct

  • Spousal and child maintenance

  • Variation and enforcement of court orders

  • Financial relief following overseas divorce

  • Pre-nuptial and separation agreements

  • Civil partnership disputes

  • Claims under Schedule 1 of the Children Act, including applications for university fees

  • Child support

  • Trusts of land and cohabitation disputes

  • Claims under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act

  • Appeals

  • Early neutral evaluations and private Financial Dispute Resolution hearings (FDRs)

We are committed to achieving fair, effective outcomes while minimising conflict wherever possible.
