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.

Mr Sheikh and his team have been tremendously supportive and helpful during our case. A specialist and high-level of legal knowledge was backed with sensitivity and honesty, providing clear information and explaining options carefully. Communication was timely and easy to understand. It was a great relief to know that we were in the hands of such a caring and effective professional. We felt fully supported throughout the process and would not hesitate to recommend Mr Sheikh and Winckworth Sherwood to others. Thank you.
