Guiding a Fair Divorce Settlement

"Our client, a business owner, sought legal representation for divorce and financial matters. The case involved multiple assets, including rental properties and businesses. From the outset, the opposing party took a confrontational approach, refusing to engage in settlement discussions outside of court."

Background

Our client, a business owner, sought legal representation for divorce and financial matters. The case involved multiple assets, including rental properties and businesses. From the outset, the opposing party took a confrontational approach, refusing to engage in settlement discussions outside of court.

Approach

We provided clear, strategic guidance, ensuring our client was fully informed throughout the process. We worked closely with financial experts to analyse business documents, counteracting delays caused by the opposing party’s refusal to engage. Despite our client’s willingness to settle fairly, the case proceeded to a Final Hearing due to ongoing disputes.

Outcome

A financial settlement was eventually agreed upon, matching the offer our client had made at the outset. The opposing party later attempted to overturn the agreement, but the court is expected to uphold the signed order. While emotionally and financially draining, our client was supported at every stage, ensuring a fair and just resolution.
