In a Joint Episode by Talking Family Law and Law & Disorder, Anita Explores the Changing Landscape of Misconduct in Financial Remedy Cases

The award-winning Resolution podcast, Talking Family Law, co-hosted by our own Anita Mehta and Simon Blain (Forsters LLP), has collaborated with the Law and Disorder podcast, hosted by Baroness Helena Kennedy KC and Sir Nicholas Mostyn, for a joint episode titled: “The Misconduct Dilemma: how should abuse be reflected in financial remedy proceedings?”

In this episode, the hosts explore whether misconduct should be taken into account when an equitable division of assets is being attempted following a divorce. They discuss how the law has developed over time, how it operates in practice today, and what future reform might look like as our understanding of complex issues such as domestic abuse and coercive control continues to evolve.
