A director and part owner of a company worth in the region of £19m was in the process of a divorce, and requires legal support around the attendant financial matters.
With family involvement in the firm, the central desire was to avoid eroding any goodwill that could disrupt business, while at the same time putting enough pressure on the solicitors acting for the opposing party to obtain a fair and balanced settlement.
In order to facilitate deft handling of the case, a direct channel of communication with the partner’s instructed solicitors was established, which served to keep any dispute or misunderstanding between the parties to a minimum.
