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.

Contact us if you have any questions regarding the process and we can offer our expert advice to ensure the best possible outcome for your specific circumstances.

Client Testimonials

Thank you so very much for your help and steering us through a minefield! Take care and be happy

Ms W

Lucy provided services as my solicitor long-distance. I was residing in the US while my case was ongoing in the UK court. I had the pleasure of meeting her face-to-face for an initial consultation before my return to the US and she was very professional in all correspondence until matters came to a conclusion.

She was always very happy to answer questions thoroughly and schedule long-distance phone calls when I requested them. She has a very kind and professional nature. Needless to say, she made what could have been an exhausting process extremely painless. I highly recommend her.

Ms S 

If I could give an abundance of stars to rate Brighton and Hove Law I would. They have given an excellent service all round.
The care and personal attention given has been amazing. The support and understanding has been unmeasurable.

Dear Michelle,

I just wanted to say a big thank you for your kindness, patience and strength you showed us. We got through this due to some very special people and you were one of them. We could not have achieved this resolution without your guidance and care.

Ms M

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
