Financial Settlements
We always strive to agree a fair settlement between the spouses rather than clients undergo the delays and costs associated with proceeding to Court for a decision. Of course if a satisfactory settlement cannot be reached between the spouses we can issue an application to go before a Judge and robustly present your case. We advise clients on issues that include spousal maintenance, property, pensions, and inheritances amongst many others.

Prenuptial & Postnuptial Agreements
A prenuptial agreement (and postnuptial agreement) in England is now often regarded as binding by the Court if it meets certain criteria and is considered to be fair to both parties. Because the question of what is fair varies so much for individual circumstances, prenuptial agreements have to be very carefully drafted to fit individual circumstances. It therefore pays to have the agreement drafted by a specialist firm such as Brookman Solicitors.
