Guidance for Divorcing and Separating Couples
Family Law
New guidance is due to be published later in 2014 to provide information for divorcing or separating couples as to how property and income is distributed by the Court.
The guidance follows a recent law commission report which found that there was confusion about how one person may be required to meet the other’s financial needs following divorce or separation.
The new guidance is hoped to help couples to approach separation with realistic expectations and also to assist the judiciary and mediators.
If you require advice on divorce or separation then please contact our family law department for a free initial 30 minute appointment to discuss your circumstances and receive preliminary advice.
