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 has been unfailingly professional and client focused throughout. Her enthusiasm and commitment to always providing the best legal advice and assistance to clients is unparalleled. I would have no hesitation in referring a friend or family to Sarah in the event of them having a family law issue.

Michael Valks, Barrister

Thank you so much for all your help over the last 18 months. I couldn’t have done it without you! You truly are wonderful and amazing at what you do and have played a huge role in supporting my family. I will miss our phone calls – I’m not going to know what to do with myself now! The happiness of my children together really sums up what we’ve been fighting for the past year and a half! Again, thank you so much, from all of us.

Mrs A

I have had the pleasure of working with Sarah on some very complex and difficult cases over the years.  She never loses sight of the client’s objectives but makes sure they receive realistic and sensible advice. Her case preparation is excellent and she is always willing to go the extra mile when necessary. When I receive a brief from Sarah I know that the case will be conducted effectively and efficiently. She is a consummate professional and a delight to work with.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and the team – not the nicest of circumstances – but it was a real pleasure working with you, which resulted in the right outcome. You certainly kept me sane and my feet on the ground throughout the process. Finally, thank you for keeping my costs down. I have already recommended you to several people should they need any legal advice.
