Recent case demonstrates how to divide pensions fairly following divorce
Dividing pensions fairly after divorce is frequently a key concern to separating couples. Understandably tensions can be high as fears for ones future and provision in older age can be brought to the fore.
Useful guidance on how judges and practitioners dealing with smaller needs-based cases should approach pensions was received following the recent case:
W v H (divorce: financial remedies) [2020] EWFC B10
The judgement involved input from July 2019’s “A Guide to the Treatment of Pensions on Divorce,” published by The Pension Advisory Group.
