Most couples that are separating or entering into a divorce will agree a Financial Settlement. Agreeing on a Financial Settlement will help to avoid heavy legal costs and a lot of emotional stress.
The first process of a fair settlement is called disclosure. This process requires both parties to make a full and frank disclosure of their respective financial position before negotiations can begin. Once all the details of the assets are collected and values have been agreed, negotiations will open until an agreement is reached.
There are times when applications may be sent to court to resolve financial disputes. Sometimes this is necessary to force the issue of disclosure or to establish a reasonable time frame for the process.
