Property Division
- Property division is an important aspect of family law, and yet it is often overlooked when signing agreements that affect it. In relation to family law, property law is more than an area in itself – it is closely tied to divorce law, civil partnerships, and pre and post nuptial agreements. Many questions of property family law fall under this area, and Sterling Law’s expertise covers all of them.
- One of the most common areas of property law that is asked about is: what happens to the house during a divorce? In reality, there is no simple answer. Sometimes, one person will keep the house. Sometimes, the house is sold and split, whether equally or unequally. Sterling Law knows this can be frustrating, and that complex problems often can’t be plastered over by a simple solution. Sterling Law can help to create a customised, legal agreement between you and your partner as to what to do with your important assets during a separation – such as delaying the sale of your house until a later date, or even when entering a marriage, designing a pre-nuptial agreement for you.
- Post-nuptial agreements are also an option – if you and your partner decide that property in the marriage should be set out more clearly, our team will help you create an agreement

Pre-Nuptial Agreements
- Historically, Pre-Nuptial agreements were not often looked at by courts, which meant a significant amount of autonomy in marriages and civil partnerships was lost. In recent years, however, courts have started to consider pre-nuptial agreements more and more, and they are a viable and useful way of protecting your and your partner’s interests in and after marriage.
- Domestic abuse is one of the worst things that can happen in a relationship, and it is extremely important to get out of this relationship as fast as possible
- Often, it is not as simple as leaving the relationship – especially if you are married.
