Divorce and Financial Settlement Solicitors
Justin Law are a regional, top-tier specialist firm of family law solicitors. Family law is all we do, so whatever your situation it will be familiar to us. Our divorce lawyers can handle a broad range of family law matters from uncontested divorce to complex asset division.
One of the unique expertise of our divorce solicitors is their knowledge on financial claims and financial settlements during a divorce.
We act for clients locally and in the surrounding areas of Slough, Maidenhead, Windsor and Beaconsfield, the Thames Valley and M4 corridor as well as further afield, both nationally and internationally.
All of our divorce financial settlement clients are offered a free initial meeting with no time limit.
Your finances in a divorce
As part of our service, all our divorce solicitors work closely with experts in their respective fields. Extensive experience of tax, property, valuations, accounts and pension knowledge ensures you have a clear picture of the finances and assets in your marriage from the beginning. Justin Law are skilled at negotiating financial settlements and settling financial disputes between parties – including the division of savings, assets and the family home.
If your instinct is telling you that assets have been hidden or the figures are not adding up, our experts are on hand to untangle finances, both personal and business, to identify any discrepancies, including revealing hidden assets and income.
Do I need a financial settlement in a divorce?
Yes. A Decree Absolute in divorce proceedings or a Final Order in dissolution proceedings will not deal with the potential financial claims arising as a result of your marriage/civil partnership. Unless these financial claims have been formally dismissed by an Order of the Court they remain alive. This means that a financial claim can potentially still be brought many years after a marriage/civil partnership has ended. It is therefore advisable to resolve the financial issues before finalising the divorce/dissolution, so that you can both move forward in your lives with peace of mind. Our divorce and financial settlements solicitors will provide clear and professional advice through this process.

As a married person, you have legal rights to financial provision from your spouse on divorce.
We are here to answer any questions that you may have. These questions may include:
Will the family home have to be sold and if it is, how will the sale proceeds be divided?
If the family home has to be sold, how will both of you meet your housing needs?
What money will you both have to live on?
Whether child maintenance is payable and if it is, at what level?
How should the other assets of the family be divided?
How should your pension assets be treated?

Divorce financial settlement:
1. Notice of application - Form A
Sending a completed From A (‘Notice of an application for a financial order’) starts off the process of financial settlement.
2. First Directions Appointment date
The court sets a date for the First Directions Appointment (FDA). The judge will use this meeting to consider what information each side needs to provide in order to create the divorce financial settlement.
3. Financial statement - Form E
Each of you sends the court a From E (Financial Statement) at least five weeks before the FDA. You also send a copy to each other.
4. FDA documents
These documents are filed two weeks before the FDA:
- A concise statement of issues.
- A chronology of events.
- A questionnaire to address issues arising from the Form E.
- A Form G, through which you tell the court whether the FDA meeting can be combined with the Financial Dispute Resolution (FDR) meeting. Typically the FDR meeting takes place after the FDA meeting.
5. Costs - Form H
Each party sends the court a completed Form H just before the FDA meeting, listing any costs they have incurred.
6. FDA meeting at court
The judge will decide what valuations and other evidence must be provided and what questions must be answered by each party in respect of the divorce financial settlement.
Many judges are keen to see whether a resolution meeting (see 8 below) can take place at this stage. If not, a date is set for the FDR meeting.
7. File proposals
Both sides answer questionnaires, prepare evidence, and submit proposals to the court for the divorce financial settlement.
Both sides also submit a second Form H, listing updated costs.
Many judges are keen to see whether a resolution meeting (see 8 below) can take place at this stage. If not, a date is set for the FDR meeting.
8. FDR hearing
The judge will try to get both parties to agree to a financial settlement. Most divorcing couples settle at this stage (or soon afterwards). If not, the judge sets the date for a final hearing.
9. Further proposals
The negotiations continue between the two sides, including revised proposals for settlement that are sent to the court and to the other party.
10. Final hearing
In the absence of any agreement, and following the submission of updated costs on a Form H1, a new judge decides on a financial settlement.
Our Divorce and Financial Settlements Solicitors will remain by your side to ensure you make the right financial decisions to protect you and your family’s future.
