DIVORCE

When a marriage breaks down, how do you move forward in a way that is clear, practical, and protects your interests?

Where one or both parties consider that the marriage has irretrievably broken down, divorce may be the appropriate step. The dissolution of marriage often comes with the discussion of ancillary matters, such as child-related care arrangements, maintenance issues, and the division of the matrimonial assets (oftentimes including the matrimonial home).

Where parties can agree on the dissolution of the marriage and on the other matters, they may wish to proceed with a simplified divorce. This is often the route that saves parties both time and costs.

Where parties cannot agree on the dissolution of the marriage or on any other ancillary issue, the divorce will be considered a contested one.

Whether it is a simplified or contested divorce that you may be facing, it is important to have a skilled and dependable legal team by your side, to assist you through the process.

Our team of lawyers has extensive experience in both simplified and contested divorce matters:

  • In a landmark Court of Appeal case, we successfully increased a client’s share of matrimonial assets from 25% to 75%, with the client obtaining $10.2million from an original decision of $3.4million. This is one of the largest increases on appeal in a divorce proceeding.

  • In a recent High Court matter, we successfully acted for our client in securing 34% of the matrimonial asset pool with a value of more than $8million. The Court agreed to exclude our client’s inheritance monies from division, and decided that sole care and control of the children should be granted to our client.

  • In simplified divorce matters, we have acted efficiently, effectively, and discreetly, in securing our clients the orders that they wanted.
