A Masterclass on Drafting Matrimonial Agreements

About the Seminar:

This highly practical and engaging CPD session is designed for practitioners looking to strengthen their expertise in drafting matrimonial agreements. Hosted by Kirsty McGuinness and Beverley Addison of BTO Solicitors, the masterclass will cover Separation Agreements, Cohabitation Agreements, Pre-Nuptial Agreements, and Post-Nuptial Agreements, offering a comprehensive and hands-on overview of best practice in this nuanced area of law.

The session will focus on key drafting principles, equipping attendees with the tools to produce clear, robust, and enforceable agreements tailored to clients’ needs. We will discuss commonly encountered tricky clauses and highlight potential pitfalls, ambiguity risks, and strategies to future-proof your agreements against challenge.

In addition, the masterclass will explore wider considerations that increasingly impact matrimonial agreements, including tax and wealth planning issues, as well as the crossover with other areas of law such as when your agreement involves transferring a company or business interest.
