Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Divorce in Retirement, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Divorce in retirement covers ending a long-term marriage when one or both spouses are retired or near retirement. It involves evaluating pension rights, capital and housing, and how retirement affects financial claims and living arrangements under the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 and related family law. A solicitor helps gather and present financial information, negotiates a settlement, and applies for pension sharing or earmarked pension orders where appropriate, with attention to deadlines and court procedures. The aim is a final agreement that reflects the retiree’s changed financial position and needs.

Where a solicitor protects your position

Key concerns include timely disclosure of pension rights, the need to protect ongoing income in retirement, and the potential transfer of assets or pension rights to balance fairness. A solicitor explains the legal framework, supports drafting a financial settlement, and handles court applications where negotiations fail, while ensuring the agreement is legally binding and enforceable.

Having had a poor experience with my previous solicitors, Nicola Starbuck was a breath of fresh air. Very professional but easy to understand with a straight forward approach.

Vanessa Gillbanks

Tagged solicitor Vanessa Gillbanks

I found Vanessa Gillbanks extremely helpful and informative, using language that was easy to understand at a time that was very stressful to me. I would readily recommend this company. The charges were advised to me before I started any proceedings which of course was preferable as I was able to budget for these. I am completely happy to go back to Richard Nelson LLP for any future needs.

Ann Hallmark

Tagged solicitor Ann Hallmark

I first approached Ann on recommendation when wanting advice on a potential financial agreement with my ex-husband. There were several unusual aspects in terms of gender equality about our family finances, and, from the off, Ann understood my circumstances as a woman and the main earner, offered excellent advice, answered all of my concerns and then set about ensuring that she delivered an effective, supportive service that enabled us to divorce in such a way that ensured my family was protected, the agreement was equitable and my ex-husband and I stayed friends through the process. I appreciated her clarity, thoughtfulness, thoroughness and effective, responsive service. I have recommended Ann to friends already and will continue to do so.
