Legal 500 UK, The Clients Guide to Law Firms

FRENCH VERSION / VERSION FRANÇAISE

There are important differences in the financial outcomes between English and French law (or the laws of other Francophone countries) in situations of separation or divorce. Clients often have a choice of where to bring proceedings, so seeking early advice is often of vital importance to the outcome.

We can advise on the laws of divorce and separation and all related financial applications.

We can advise you on:

the best jurisdiction in which to bring your case, and the race to court to secure jurisdiction
the applicability of pre-nuptial agreements and foreign marital contracts/ regimes
financial outcome as to capital, maintenance and other assets including pensions
disclosure issues
negotiating a financial settlement
financial applications for the children of unmarried parents
cross border recognition of court orders
orders for legal costs, and funding arrangements
the right process for you – negotiated, court, or out of court mediation/ arbitration
child relocation issues arising out of separation
all other children issues arising out of separation

In situations involving cross-border issues we work closely with leading lawyers in France and other Francophone countries. We also work with recognised accountancy, real estate, and wealth management experts in London and abroad, enabling us to offer a fuller service to meet your needs. Where needed, we recommend therapists and other related professionals.
