Written by Robin Ellison and Maggie Rae

The second edition of Family Breakdown and Pensions is an invaluable guide to the law on pension rights and divorce. This focused text provides helpful advice for lawyers on the day-to-day problems likely to be encountered in practice. The three methods of pension sharing: pension splitting, offsetting and earmarking are all fully discussed. Written by a pensions expert and family lawyer, the new edition brings the reader up-to-date with the legislation on pension sharing introduced by the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999 and includes the extensive new Pension Sharing Regulations in consolidated form. The text explains in simple terms the new law, its underlying principles and its application in practice and contains a chapter on the implications for pension scheme managers, as well as a range of useful precedents.
