Brabners Personal: Divorcing in England and Wales or Scotland – the differences you should be aware of

Joanne Radcliff from Brabners LLP and Philippa Cunniff from Gilson Gray discuss jurisdictional issues that impact the way in which divorce is dealt with in both England/Wales and Scotland, including the significant differences in the way the courts in each jurisdiction deal with the division of assets and maintenance.

They consider the circumstances which may lead to you having the potential to choose between the two jurisdictions, the pros and cons of choosing one over the other, and the impact of Brexit on starting divorce proceedings in either jurisdiction.
