Protecting wealth acquired pre-marriage or inherited during a marriage is a key area in which our team are highly experienced in dealing with.

Protecting Your Wealth

As a leading team of family lawyers we have been resolving financial settlements as part of divorce proceedings for over 30 years and we are skilled in combining negotiation and mediation with litigation in order to deliver the best financial outcome for our clients. We have a wealth of experience in dealing with assets of different types including the family homes, business assets, off shore assets, assets held in trust and pensions. We also deal with claims for spousal and child maintenance.

Protecting wealth acquired pre-marriage or inherited during a marriage is a key area which we are very experienced in dealing with. In many cases wealth gifted or inherited, including businesses, that have been built up by either the husband or wife’s family will be faced with claims upon it; our dedicated team will be on hand to advise you how to defend or pursue such a claim and is something we have dealt with on many occasions.

In addition to cases involving the usual assets of a family home, savings and investments, we regularly deal with cases with businesses and assets on and off shore often in Trust. Knowing how to value these assets and how the courts will deal with them is an area in which we have specialist knowledge.
