Couples who have had children separate for various reasons, including financial pressures, unreasonable behaviour, or simply just growing apart.

The impact on people that have been ripped off by fraudsters can be financially devastating to lives; with many people loosing thousands of pounds to scams that come in various forms. For example, romance fraud, bank account scams, scammers pretending to be service providers or mail companies asking for a shortfall in postage all dressed up in different forms to extort money fraudulently from a victim.

Divorce. What Is NOT A Matrimonial Asset? 30:49

40 weeks ago30:49

30:49

Whilst couples do not enter in to a marriage expecting to get a divorce and considering who should get what out of their marriage if the relationship comes to an end, the confusion on who gets what assets from the marriage, and why, along with the expense and stress that can come with getting a divorce, can be very confusing and a trying process. Divorcing couples who are unable to agree on who how the matrimonial home is divided, and how all of the assets and liabilities of the marriage are divided between them, are often left in the hands of a Judge to decide how their assets should be divided, often leaving divorcing couples with eye watering legal bills to pay, at the end of a lengthily legal process. With many marriages taking place between people who are well into their 30’s, 40s and 50’s plus, it is not unusual for individuals to enter in to a marriage having acquired their own assets. But in the eyes of the law, is it the case that everything each person owns, including assets that they brought in to the marriage, should be divided equally between the parties in a divorce? Can it be argued that assets that you brought in to the marriage are not 'joint' assets’, and that you should walk away with what you brought in? Or do our laws state that once you are married everything that you both owned prior to the marriage becomes a part of the matrimonial pot? In this episode, senior Barrister Michael George and Hatti Suvari discuss all of the above and much more; telling you what you NEED TO KNOW; as always, in Plain and Simple English.…

One Punch Killers 23:48

50 weeks ago23:48

23:48

In a split second a person can become a killer or be killed. A One Punch Killer is when someone throws a single punch that results in a death, and often when the perpetrator does not intend to kill, but nevertheless, a single punch that has a devastating effect. But how is this dealt by our laws, when an unfortunate and unexpected criminal act is carried out, when the intention was not to kill and possibly the only intention was to have a good old-fashioned street brawl? Would the perpetrator be given any leniency in law? Controversy surrounds this topic; with questions being asked on ‘what is a fair price for someone to pay for causing a death, even though it was unintended?’. In some cases, it has been argued that long prison sentences should not be handed out due to an unfortunate event of death not being the intention by the accused, whilst campaigners demand tougher sentences. In this episode senior Barrister Simon Spence KC and Hatti Suvari will bring you interesting, insightful and jargon free conversation that you will hear nowhere else!
