Pensions on divorce

A guide to surviving pensions on divorce has been published by Advicenow, the independent website (www.advicenow.org.uk) run by the charity Law for Life: the Foundation for Public Legal Education

The step-by-step guide, for litigants in person, aims to help people sort out their pensions in a divorce or end of civil partnership.

Matt Sullivan, head of professional services at wealth manager Brewin Dolphin, which assisted with the guide, said: ‘Pensions can be complicated and therefore misunderstood. We see clients whose complex high-net worth pensions haven’t been suitably considered which can lead to their true value being overlooked.’
