How much am I entitled to in a divorce?

Determining your entitlement in a divorce depends on several factors:

All assets acquired during the marriage are typically considered matrimonial property and subject to division.

Both financial (income, investments) and non-financial contributions (childcare, homemaking) are considered.

The court assesses the needs of both parties, including housing and living expenses.

Longer marriages are likely to involve more matrimonial assets to be shared, while shorter marriages might see a different approach.

The needs and welfare of any children involved are prioritized.

The health, age, and earning capacity of each party can influence the settlement.

Any debts incurred during the marriage will also be considered.

How to calculate divorce settlement?

Calculating a divorce settlement involves several key steps:

List all assets, including properties, savings, investments, and pensions.

Document both parties’ income and expenses.

Obtain accurate valuations for properties, investments, and pensions.

List all debts and liabilities, such as mortgages and loans.

Assess housing and living expenses for both parties and any children involved.

UK law often aims for a fair distribution, assessing needs and contributions to ensure equity.

Engage with family solicitors or divorce lawyers for tailored advice.

Consider alternative dispute resolution with your lawyers for an amicable settlement.

I moved my divorce to Teresa and Judith from another solicitor that I did not have confidence in and what a difference. Their sensitivity and understanding got me through one of the worst times of my life. Their guidance, support and knowledge through the whole drawn out process is so appreciated. Together we managed to achieve a fair settlement. Teresa and Judith absolutely know what they are doing. I cannot recommend them enough.

Outstanding Legal Support from Start to Finish:From my initial call to the resolution of my case, the firm and its staff demonstrated exceptional professionalism and care. I would particularly like to commend Mrs Harriet Reid, a family solicitor whose dedication and expertise were instrumental in achieving a successful outcome.Despite having less than ten days to prepare, Mrs Reid devoted considerable time and attention to my case. Her legal knowledge, strategic insight, and empathetic approach were of the highest calibre. She displayed remarkable skill in preparing the case for my counsel, ensuring every detail was meticulously addressed.If I ever require legal representation again, I know exactly where to turn.

Their patience when i was working away and understanding was especially appreciated.Once that was all complete Amanda and Samantha and the convayensing team sorted the transfer of the house and the paperwork associated with that.I would highly recommend them and thier company for any legal issues you have and would use thier services again without hesitation.
