This talk is by a specialist Legal-Zone matrimonial lawyer on the procedure which the Court will adapt to decide applications by divorcing spouses in financial proceedings.

The Matrimonial Causes Act requires the Court in matrimonial proceedings to::

• Ensure that the parties are on an equal footing
• avoid unnecessary expense
• ensure that cases are dealt with proportionately to the money involved and the financial position of each party
• that cases are dealt with expeditiously and fairly

This talk explains how the Court complies with these duties and how you can expect disputed financial matters to be dealt with.
