?? We were beyond thrilled to see our former Head of Family Law David Salter presented with the Cornwell Award for Outstanding Contribution to Family Law at last night's LexisNexis UK Family Law Awards ?? We know we're a bit biased but we couldn't think of anyone more deserving of such recognition. David's career has spanned some of the biggest changes in family law and he has always been at the vanguard, encouraging the family law community to strive for better. So thank you David - and congratulations!

The Family Court has a wide range of powers in financial remedy claims, including the ability to transfer assets between parties, order the sale of a property, and pay a lump sum. As a result, in most financial remedy cases, the question of who actually owns a property is not usually determinative of the outcome. In this blog post, Sue Brookes delves into the complexities of property disputes after a relationship breakdown and what happens when third parties claim ownership of an asset.
