Scenario Analysis - Australian Law


Henry Brookman practiced law in Australia for over 20 years and has extensive expertise and contacts there.

 

 

Australian Law - Scenario Analysis Example #1


Mr and Mrs B moved to Australia in retirement. They separated and their lawyers there were negotiating a financial settlement. They owned two houses in Australia. Mr B had a substantial pension from the U.K. They also owned a commercial property in England held through an offshore corporation.

Our Solution:
We advised Mr B's Australian lawyers as to how a share of his pension could be directed to Mrs B, and how to assess the value of that. We also advised as to whether an Australian order could be effective to deal with the commercial property, and what could be done to effect an agreed settlement if Mrs B gave up any claim to it. Subsequently we obtained "mirror" consent orders in England.
