This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following its 2011 consultation on marital property agreements, the Law Commission has opened a supplementary consultation on needs and non-matrimonial property, Matrimonial Property, Needs and Agreements - A Supplementary Consulatation Paper (Consultation Paper No 208). The earlier paper examined the legal status of financial agreements made by husbands, wives and civil partners, often known as 'pre-nups' and 'post-nups'. The most important question addressed in that consultation was the enforceability of such agreements. This extension to the project followed the recommendation from Sir David Norgrove's Family Justice Review Panel for a review of the law relating to financial orders. The review is looking at two specific aspects of the law relating to financial provision on divorce: (i) to what extent one spouse should be required to meet the other's financial needs, and what exactly is meant by needs; and (

Download or read book Matrimonial property needs and agreements written by Great Britain: Law Commission and published by Stationery Office. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The law gives the courts a wide discretion to make appropriate financial orders when marriages and civil partnerships are dissolved. An important element of those awards is meeting both parties' 'financial needs'. There is evidence of regional inconsistencies in how the courts approach awards for needs which creates unpredictability. And while the law is largely well-understood by family lawyers, it is not clear to the general public. This report recommends that the Family Justice Council produce authoritative guidance on financial needs which would also help to reinforce consistency to how the law is applied in the courts. Some jurisdictions have gone beyond explanation and verbal clarification, producing formulae that generate guideline amounts for payment from one former spouse to another. This report recommends that work be done with a view to assessing whether such an aid to reaching financial settlements could be devised. Pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements (referred to together here as 'marital property agreements') cannot be enforced as contracts and they cannot take away the courts' powers to make orders. This report recommends that legislation be enacted to introduce 'qualifying nuptial agreements'. These would be enforceable contracts, not subject to the scrutiny of the courts, which would enable couples to make binding arrangements about the financial consequences of divorce or dissolution. In order for an agreement to be a 'qualifying' nuptial agreement, certain procedural safeguards would have to be met. This report includes a draft Bill, the Nuptial Agreements Bill, which would introduce qualifying nuptial agreements

Download or read book I Now Pronounce You Financially Fit written by Pam Friedman and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2015-12-15 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book explores an overlooked but pivotal truth: Divorce is a financial planning issue. All too often, people willingly enter into marriage without even discussing our investments, obligations, income, budget, or the impact a divorce might have on our financial futures. Why would we taint our special day by talking about money when there are caterers to hire and dicey family dynamics to manage? Both men and women think marriage is supposed to be about trust, love, and romance. And it is. But we are ignoring an important reality. The current divorce rate is about fifty percent. In I Now Pronounce You Financially Fit, Pam Friedman talks about this financial elephant in the room. In marriage, as Friedman explains, it is never too late to protect our money from the financial devastation of divorce. And if divorce is unavoidable, her advice can help us through that too. Pam Friedman uses her twenty-plus years of experience in financial planning and investing to advise us about how to address our finances as couples. By being sensible, informed, and realistic, we can prevent many of the financial problems that cause divorce—or that divorce can cause. ​Read this book and let Pam Friedman help you discover your happily ever after.

Download or read book The Smart Woman s Guide to Property Law written by Carla Spivack and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The income gap between women and men has gotten lots of attention in the last few decades: today women earn seventy-nine cents for every dollar men earn. But fewer people are aware of the much more serious wealth gap: for every dollar in wealth men own, women own thirty-two cents. Thirty-two cents! Wealth matters. Wealth is what gives us a financial safety net when we lose our jobs, break up a relationship or divorce, we or our dependents become sick, or when we are hit by some other financial crisis. It enables us to build security, to give our children a future, and to retire. It is passed from generation to generation, allowing wealthy families to stay wealthy over time. Wealth can generate income, whether through investments in the financial markets, or real estate, or through funding a startup business, and more. Significant wealth even allows us to influence our world by allowing us to contribute to political campaigns and policy initiatives. For these reasons, wealth is a better indicator of financial status than income: it reveals who is secure and influential and who is not. By treating women and men equally without recognizing the gross social and economic advantages that differentiate us, the law perpetuates the wealth gap. Here, Carla Spivack takes readers through a tour of a woman’s life stages and the property laws that may apply and hinder their financial independence. From living together to marriage, from divorce to inheritance, the circumstances invite unfair treatment that leaves women out in the cold. Understanding how to protect your assets, fight for what is fair, and increase financial security is increasingly important as the wage gap continues to flourish. Readers will learn about the laws that work against them and how to protect themselves regardless of their relationship status. For all women of all ages, here is your guide to keeping your wealth not matter how your relationship fares.

Download or read book Marital Agreements and Private Autonomy in Comparative Perspective written by Jens M Scherpe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-02-24 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with a subject that has recently been the focus of debate and law reform in many jurisdictions: how much scope should spouses have to conclude agreements concerning their financial affairs - and under what circumstances should such agreements be binding and enforceable? These marital agreements include pre-nuptial, post-nuptial and separation agreements. The book is the result of a British Academy-funded research project which investigated and compared the relevant law of England and Wales, Australia, Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, Sweden and the jurisdictions of the United States. In addition to chapters on these jurisdictions, the book includes a chapter on the 'English practitioner's view'. It also provides a comparative analysis of the different matrimonial property regimes and the rules on marital agreements that explores underlying themes and principlesand makes recommendations for regulating marital agreements. A key theme is the function and effect of marital agreements in the different jurisdictions. Thus, each chapter first explains the underlying 'default' rules for ancillary relief/matrimonial property and maintenance. It then analyses the current rules for marital agreements, and gives a brief account of the private international law rules. The book provides a comprehensive source of reference on ancillary relief/matrimonial property and maintenance and the rules on pre-nuptial, post-nuptial and separation agreements in 14 jurisdictions. It offers guidance for academics and practitioners dealing with international matters, and a basis for discussions on law reform. 'I applaud the vision and perseverance of Jens Scherpe in having conceived this book and, with so much distinguished help, in now bringing it to birth. I will be using it for many years and I warmly invite my fellow family lawyers across the world to do likewise.'
