Details

A cradle to grave approach in pursuing claims under Part III MFPA 1984, including advice on how to commence, proceed and conclude claims, as well as presenting the legal framework and practical structure. These claims have a propensity to be sprawling and in light of more recent decisions, most notably in Potanin v Potanina [2024] UKSC 3 and TY v XA [2024] EWFC 96, prone to consistent change. This single comprehensive text addresses all the elements of such a claim.

Not only do the authors summarise the legal framework, but they also assist practitioners with all the various pitfalls and dangers which can arise, such as the approach to permission hearings and dealing with foreign assets.

Unlike any other text, this practical manual assists practitioners with answering the key questions:

  • What is the legal framework for claims under Part III MFPA 1984?
  • How do I prepare and litigate these types of claims?
  • What do I need to be careful about when making these claims?

This indispensable guide sets out the key basics for those unfamiliar with these claims, as well as assisting experienced practitioners with more difficult or complex points.
