FAQs

A financial settlement is a legal contract that outlines how a couple’s financial assets and responsibilities will be split up in the event of a separation or divorce. This includes dividing property, debts, spousal support, and pensions.

Financial settlements can take different lengths of time based on various factors such as the complexity of assets, agreement between parties, and the efficiency of legal processes. Simple cases may be resolved in a few months, while complex cases can extend to 12-18 months or more.

The division of assets and financial settlement in a divorce is determined by looking at the financial information provided by both individuals, their requirements and roles in the marriage, child support, maintenance, pensions, and can be decided through mutual agreement or by the court.
