If you are separating or getting divorced, your children’s welfare will be your top priority – that’s why our child custody solicitors will make it theirs too. We understand that agreeing how you will co-parent your children can be emotional and contentious, but doing so quickly will provide much-needed reassurance and security for your children.
Someone who has lost the mental capacity to manage their finances may well hold assets – such as investments, property and shares – in different parts of the world. If you’re looking after their affairs, it can be complicated and difficult to get financial institutions in other countries to recognise a Lasting Power of Attorney or Deputy order. Our specialist Court of Protection solicitors can help you by co-ordinating and dealing with these assets.

Whether you’re married, in a civil partnership or living together, choosing to separate is an incredibly difficult and emotional decision. At a time when you’re already distressed, separating your assets, debts and responsibilities can be extremely hard to manage without input from an experienced separation solicitor.
During divorce, separation or the dissolution of your civil partnership, one of your main concerns will be money. Who will get what? How will you provide for the children? How will you agree what’s a fair divorce financial settlement? No matter how amicable your parting is, it’s crucial to make sure your finances are settled clearly.
If you are appointed as a Court of Protection Deputy for property and financial affairs you will be responsible for managing someone’s finances. This means that you must keep their finances under regular review, even if there are arrangements or relationships which were put in place before your appointment. You cannot simply do nothing. Inherited arrangements or relationships may no longer be in the best interests of the individual now, and as Deputy you may need to make changes to bring those arrangements up to date.
