When a couple separates, splitting their finances can be quite difficult, especially when it comes to pensions, as they can be one of the most valuable assets on divorce and are often overlooked.

In this episode, Tim and Jen are joined by Mills & Reeve Principal Associate, David Hickmott. David has extensive experience in advising on complex financial matters, including pensions.

Together they discuss pensions and divorce: the importance of disclosing pensions and obtaining a cash equivalent transfer value, how the courts handle pensions, what clients’ priorities should be, pension valuations, the role of a pensions on divorce expert (PODE) and the benefits of mediation.
