Solicitor for farm/ divorce matter

[mobileweld]

Hello everyone, a good friend of mine has had a surprise divorce put upon him. He is very elderly and I believe has a strong case to not hand over 50/50 split. Does anybody recommend a solicitor that knows their stuff regarding farm/ land/ property and divorce. It’s a complex case. East Anglian area

Philippa Cunniff…GillsonGray…based in Edinburgh but not an issue in regards acting in England, distance probably a good thing.
Very good.

Acrimonious divorce is a lawyers dream-come-true.
If there are children involved settle quickly for £1 and particularly if you are old.
You can’t take it with you.

You don't have to be married, the other partner can still take 50/50.

More money, more problems ........

They should take half the debt too

Having been on the recieving end of them, I'd reccomend Pennington Manches. They did very well for the ex wife.

I believed I had the same case but am not elderly. Ended up paying 70/30 against me. 4500 a day barrister cost me that by being useless. I reccomended a solicitor. But I honestly would reccomend a sane, intelligent and informed man to stand for himself. It all comes down to a 10 minute tiff in court and the most believable wins

Just curious, could you have got away with 50.50 on day one?

Humphrys & Symonds Hereford .
Bev Bradshaw ... sorted things for a few around here very sharp!
Took over my FIL's divorce which was getting very complicated. His solicitor in Exsex was giving all sorts of stuff away...Bev very quickly sorted it out and not too expensive.
They also have a very specialist solicitor that knows farming inside out.

She probably ended up pocketing less than my first offer before solicitors were involved, but greed on her side took over and it ended up in an acrimonious, very expensive solicitors bill on both sides. If I hadn't employed a solicitor and had defended myself it would have been a better job all round.

Nick Ingrey at Roythornes in Spalding. Did a very good job for me. Told me not to be afraid of court, but prepare for a long job

Precisely that.

They can all see the physical assets,but the debt behind them suprises a few!

Trusts can be helpful but also a liability
