A Practical Guide to Pensions on Divorce for Lawyers - Second Edition'

By Bryan Scant

In recent years, the treatment of pensions on divorce has become a focal point for those practising family law. The publication of the Pension Advisory Group's second report, coupled with evolving case law, has prompted family lawyers to pay closer attention to pension assets, an area that has not always been given the attention it deserves.

This increased awareness is even more important given the rise in professional negligence claims against solicitors who have provided incorrect or insufficient advice regarding pensions. As a result, it's imperative for legal professionals to understand the complexities of pension assets and how courts approach them during divorce and dissolution.

Two decades after the introduction of pension sharing orders, the traditional "add everything up and split it down the middle" method is being reconsidered.

This book explores the practical aspects of how to work with cases involving the treatment of pensions in divorce, offering guidance on how lawyers should advise their clients, practical tips to ensure a matter proceeds expeditiously where possible, tips on involving experts and considers what outcomes a party can expect when pension assets are involved.
