Farming Divorces cover divorce proceedings where farming families and farm businesses form a central part of the couple’s assets and interests. A solicitor in this area helps with valuing and dividing the farming enterprise, including land, tenancy agreements, livestock, and machinery, and may handle the transfer of shares in farming companies or co-owned farms. They also advise on related issues such as farming partnerships, succession within farming families, tax considerations, and securing a workable settlement through consent orders or court proceedings when necessary.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The stakes include protecting a farming livelihood, ensuring the farm remains viable after separation, and securing clear arrangements for tenancy, land holding, and animal or stock interests. A solicitor provides guidance on deadlines, regulatory notices, and the potential impact on farming tenancies, with consideration of inheritance and succession rules that affect ownership and control of the farming assets.
