Background

Cohabitee & Matrimonial Finance

30 Park Place provides expert advice across the full range of family finance matters, from matrimonial finance to complex cohabitee disputes.

We combine strategic legal insight with exceptional client care and attention to detail.

Our team is experienced, responsive, and focused on resolving financial issues efficiently and sensitively with focus throughout on the cost benefit analysis.

As one of the UK’s few truly multidisciplinary sets, 30 Park Place’s family finance team uses its wide-ranging experience to assist in both classic matrimonial finance and cohabitee disputes. We also advise on cases where capacity issues arise, involving parallel business or probate litigation and those including personal injury awards.

Our barristers are trusted by solicitors, respected in court, and known for their clear, practical advice.

We have strength across the full range of family finance work, from complex and high-value cases to those funded by legal aid. Our barristers have particular experience in cases involving intervenors and inherited property and are skilled at acting in cases against litigants in person.

We also regularly deal with disputes under the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996 (TOLATA). Our barristers are adept at using ADR to resolve disputes proportionately, with solutions crafted to the client’s particular needs.

Our team also advises on Part III applications, following foreign divorces, and Schedule 1 claims for financial provision for children.

Clients value our proactive clerking, transparent fees, and ability to work closely with solicitors to ensure cases are progressed efficiently and handled with care.
