Show Notes

Today, I’m joined by Ronnie Mortimer, family lawyer at Fladgate LLP

This discussion is a little bit different from the others as this concentrates on the discussion around risk and protecting yourself legally in the event of a divorce or re-marriage.

If you already have assets in place and are considering marrying (or re-marrying) then this is a must listen.

In this episode, Ronnie & I discuss

-          What are the key ways you can plan to avoid ending up in court.

-          The average age of divorce for men and women (this surprised me).

-          The key legal difference between people who just live together and married couples.

-          What the courts look for in the event of divorce and how to protect yourself from it.

And make sure to listen to the end where Ronnie discusses the common pitfalls of owning property that grown-up children live in – and how not to lose the property!

I hope you enjoy my discussion with Ronnie Mortimer.
