What is a financial remedy?

The term financial remedy refers to the manner in which finances are allocated during a divorce or dissolution of a civil partnership. At Brighton & Hove Law, we are committed to protecting your finances at the end of a relationship and ensuring your future needs are met. We can offer our assistance in the complex financial settlements involved in high net worth divorce. Equally, we can assist you if the assets in question are minimal; we prioritise cost proportionality and deal with each case individually. Our advice ranges from assistance with tracking down assets and dealing with offshore accounts to issues regarding trusts and international property.

How does it work?

At Brighton & Hove Law, we aim to avoid expensive protracted litigation wherever possible. In terms of cost effectiveness, we recommend attempting to come to a conclusion together wherever possible. We aim to initially prioritise effective negotiation, and if necessary, can proceed to litigation. In some cases, an application to the Court may be necessary to protect a clients position, though it is worth noting this is not the only option.

Client Testimonials

Sarah Dummett and Ellie Chapman provide a first class, client focused service. Their advice and approach is accessible while robust.

Ayisha Robertson, Barrister

I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for your services, advice and much help you gave me this year. You were very kind and patient with me Lucy and I could not have got through it without you.

Ms C

Many thanks for your advice and guidance throughout this very stressful process. Your careful and considered approach, good advice and empathetic professionalism have helped to reduce my anxiety levels immeasurably. I would wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend your services to anyone going through this horrible process.

Confidential

I had a protracted and complicated divorce and I could not have wished for a better solicitor. The divorce process and all the associated financial negotiations are complex and come at a time when you are emotionally fraught, stressed and at a low ebb. Having a solicitor who is fair, firm and practical and clearly explained the options at every stage makes such a huge difference.

Lucy enabled me to balance getting the fairest settlement with retaining a workable relationship with my ex. There were no surprise, superfluous bills or actions taken that I wasn’t 100% comfortable with, which is so important.

She was available to chat on the phone and I far preferred dealing with one solicitor, who personally knew my case, rather than going via a larger firm where you do not receive such a focused, expedited approach.

I would 100% recommend Lucy to my closest friends and family.

Ms S – Hove
