Financial Settlements

We shall advise you as to your entitlement, negotiate on your behalf and pursue court proceedings where appropriate, to ensure that you achieve the apportionment that you deserve.

We will discuss your situation and advise you as to how best protect you and your children, if applicable.

That order carries a power of arrest, providing you with immediate and effective protection.
