Separated and worried about your ex-partner attempting to hide wealth or spend assets to defeat a financial claim against the same?
Urgent emergency applications to the Family Court are not an everyday occurrence but the procedures and rules are in place to allow for a person to make an urgent application to the court to prevent a partner from selling or giving away assets to others in order to either hide them or otherwise put such assets out of reach to try and attempt to defeat any claims you may have against the same.
If you are worried that your partner has sold or given assets to someone else in order to hide them from you or if you believe that your partner plans to leave the jurisdiction to live abroad and is taking steps to then transfer assets to another jurisdiction, you will need to seek urgent legal advice in order to try and stop such steps from being taken.
