About Me - Why I want to help protect your assets during your divorce financial settlement

I trained and practiced as a lawyer for 25 years. Married for over 20 years my wife and I split. I tried always to behave honourably and openly, not least for the sake of our children but in return she pursued an aggressive legal approach involving injunctions that almost put me out of business.

The experience went on for years and I had a steep learning curve. I discovered that my wife was just the same as all those other women; that she did use my children as a weapon. That she did know things about my finances I thought she never realised; that she did employ a firm of accountants that ripped through my business records to over-state my assets, wealth and her financial “needs”. Although I had hoped my decency would enable us to remain friends she just wanted the money and to keep me from moving on by keeping me working forever to support her.

This didn’t happen to me because I was a man, I just happened to be male and the major bread-winner in my marriage, and men usually are the bread-winners in today’s society, but the truth is the courts work this way against the major bread-winner in any relationship be they male or female. It is injustice that undeserving people, often guilty for a relationship breakdown in the first place, are rewarded by the courts with a huge slice of assets that is disproportionate to any contribution they made to the creation of the family wealth in the first place!

I learned so much; about how not to play by the rules and about protecting your ass and your assets! I learned so much it is now my professional consultancy service to those of you who need protection.

If you are the wealthy partner in your relationship you need my help whether you realise it or not. If you have no difficulties in your relationship, you need my help in case things change. If you anticipate difficulties you need my help to prepare; now, before they happen!. Remember, if lawyers are already involved, it may already be too late. Pre-emptive preparation is ALWAYS the best course. It is best to make sure the rules of the game suit you before the players come onto the field!

A lot of this may sound harsh, but we’ve all seen the high profile cases where people have built up a business, assets, wealth and good-standing through hard work, only to lose a massive amount during separation or divorce, to someone they once loved and trusted.
