Expertise in Complex Divorce Finances

Ancillary Relief Divorce Solicitors

"Ancillary Relief" is the legal term for the process of resolving financial matters during a divorce. Our expert financial settlement solicitors are specialists in these complex cases, ensuring your assets are protected and you achieve a fair, legally binding outcome.

The Ancillary Relief (Financial Remedy) Process

The court follows a structured process to ensure all matrimonial assets are identified, valued, and divided fairly. Our solicitors guide you through every stage, from initial disclosure to the final legally binding order.

Full Financial Disclosure

The first step is for both parties to provide a full and frank disclosure of all their assets and liabilities, typically using a Form E financial statement.

Start Your Disclosure

Negotiation & Mediation

Once we have a clear financial picture, we enter into robust negotiations to reach a fair settlement, often using mediation to avoid costly court proceedings.

Begin Negotiations

Finalising the Agreement

Any agreement is made legally binding by drafting a Financial Consent Order, which includes a Clean Break to protect you from future claims.

Questions About Ancillary Relief

What is the difference between Ancillary Relief and Financial Remedy?

There is no legal difference; it is simply a change in terminology. "Ancillary Relief" is the older term, which has now been formally replaced by "Financial Remedy" in the family courts. They both refer to the exact same process of resolving financial matters on divorce.

What is a Form E Financial Statement?

The Form E is a lengthy and detailed document that is the cornerstone of the Ancillary Relief process. Both parties must complete one, providing a full and frank disclosure of all their assets, debts, income, and future needs. It is a sworn statement, and being untruthful on it has very serious consequences.

Do we have to go to court to get an Ancillary Relief order?

No. Most cases are settled through negotiation between solicitors. However, even if you agree, your agreement must be drafted into a formal Financial Consent Order and approved by a judge to be legally binding and enforceable.
