Matrimonial considerations in Wealth Protection

International prenuptial agreements and matrimonial or cohabitation agreements are often a neglected area of estate and wealth planning. Whilst relocating individuals, entrepreneurs and their families can devote a significant amount of time and resources towards the protection of their wealth, in many jurisdictions, including England, it can be decimated by divorce and relationship breakdown. We advise on:

• international prenuptial/marital agreements
• international family law
• choice of forum for divorce
• choice of habitual residence/applicable law
• the financial consequences of marital and relationship failure in various jurisdictions
• the consequences of international relocation including potential exposure in the event of divorce/relationship failure
• international enforcement of English orders
