Family law and divorce law specifically, as with all other aspects of life, have been significantly impacted by recent events, including the COVID-19 pandemic. We discussed what those changes have been and how these are affecting our clients – both at Nedbank Private Wealth and at Stewarts – a legal team we work with and the UK’s leading litigation-only law firm. We also flag what else is on the horizon, not least the upcoming introduction of ‘no fault’ divorce, which is expected to come into effect in Autumn 2021 for England and Wales.
Huw Williams, Private Banker at Nedbank Private Wealth, was joined by:
• Richard Hogwood – Partner, Divorce and Family – Stewarts
• Jenny Duggan – Senior Associate, Divorce and Family – Stewarts
Please watch our 45 minute webinar, which included Jenny and Richard responding to questions posed by our audience at the time.
Note: since the webinar was recorded, the date for the ‘no fault’ divorce law coming into effect has been moved to 6 April 2022.
