Matrimonial Finance & Divorce Proceedings

A thorough examination of the latest developments in matrimonial finance chaired by Michael Gouriet of Withers LLP

Introduction

The ongoing uncertain economic climate means that matrimonial assets are increasingly difficult to value, divide and redistribute amongst spouses/civil partners. Shifting pension values along with fluctuations in the valuation of the matrimonial home and shares in private companies are adding to the difficulties practitioners face in negotiating settlements for their clients. Other challenges that family lawyers currently face include managing publicity and privacy in the family courts and keeping abreast of the latest case law developments.

Chaired by Michael Gouriet of Withers LLP, this prestigious event features a range of esteemed speakers that specialise in the valuation of assets within complex matrimonial finance cases.
