Pension

The equitable division of communal property and assets is a fundamental issue within divorce proceedings that also includes the division of pension funds. Protecting or accessing pension benefits is of paramount importance for long-term financial security. This is often an issue that is overlooked when embroiled in the complexities and emotions of a divorce settlement. With pensions, there is often a considerable disparity as one household earner invariably has contributions that far outweigh the pensionable contribution of the other.

The standard of your future life is important to you, so you need to be assured that you have all the financial support in place to enjoy your retirement.
