Financial Proceedings

Strategic support on disclosure, negotiations, and court applications to secure fair financial outcomes after separation.

What we cover

From Form E disclosure to negotiation and court directions, we align strategy to your assets, income, pensions, housing needs, and child arrangements.

Following a divorce, dissolution, judicial separation, or nullity, you can apply for a Financial Order to ensure you are adequately financially supported. This can include division of property, spousal support, and child support. Financial remedy orders are often obtained as part of a divorce settlement so financial affairs are finalised fairly and meet both parties' needs.

Mediation in financial remedy proceedings

Family mediation is usually cheaper, faster, and more amicable than court, but it depends on both parties being willing to negotiate civilly. Before applying for a financial order you normally attend a MIAM (Mediation Information Assessment Meeting) to see if mediation can resolve matters, unless an exemption applies. If mediation is unsuccessful or unsuitable, the next step is court.

Approach

We balance settlement-first negotiations with readiness for hearings, focused on sustainable division and protection of dependants.
