Today, over 40% of all marriages end in divorce. Thankfully, the vast majority of these are uncontested and most are relatively straightforward. It is very rare for divorce proceedings to require attendance at court and most are a paper exercise. However, the forms and documentation. In most cases where parties separate, whether they wish to divorce or not, financial arrangements have to be made.
In most cases where parties separate, whether they wish to divorce or not, financial arrangements have to be made. This can involve what should happen to the family home, whether maintenance should be paid by one party to the other, what the parties should receive with regard to family assets, and what level of child maintenance is appropriate.
Most of the time, the concerns regarding children are resolved by clarification of each parent's wishes and viewpoints and the setting up of a clear arrangement. It is better for the parties to agree on arrangements concerning the children. Such agreed arrangements are usually adhered to and further problems avoided.
Prenuptial agreements are agreements entered into freely by individuals planning to marry. This agreement is to provide for what would happen in the event of the marriage breaking down and in particular, what should happen to assets owned by the parties prior to marriage, and the assets accrued during the marriage.
Disputes concerning unmarried couples can be complex and difficult. Much may depend on evidence of contributions and in particular, who paid the mortgage. Anyone intending to purchase a house jointly should consider a cohabitees' agreement, similar to a prenuptial agreement but for unmarried partners.
