Questions my clients ask me
A straightforward case will usually take four to six months. You will be provided with full details of terms and conditions and a cost estimation at the outset. You can expect to end up with a fair and reasonable outcome, provided you play by the rules.
The court distinguishes between matrimonial and non-matrimonial property. The sharing principle applies to matrimonial assets. These typically include the home and other assets built up during the marriage. Non-matrimonial assets include gifts/inheritances received by one party during the marriage and assets owned or acquired by one party before or after the separation. These types of assets may be treated differently by the court as long as the other party’s needs can be met from the matrimonial property.
The court will look at the origin of the business, its capital value and the income it generates. It may well have to be independently valued, and a tax report obtained with the aim of your spouse being bought out. Your spouse retaining or acquiring shares in the business is usually a last resort.
