Your case will involve detailed knowledge of the law and the cases that will assist you, as well as those that wont. There are a number of arguments that come to mind - eg meeting your respective income and capital needs for life and all the relevant s25 MCA1973 factors including length of the marriage, contributions and age; also it is about sharing matrimonial/non matrimonial assets; whether inheritance should be excluded in such a case etc. This is one case where a skilled lawyer really could affect the outcome for you and I do urge you to take some very good advice. If you would like a free telephone consultation for some initial advise with a solicitor in my firm please call 01423 532600 and ask for our Practise Manager Morna Rose.
