Navigating the complexities of mortgages in divorce

Divorce and separation entail various complications – some are easier to navigate than others. But one area divorcing couples often get stuck on is their mortgage. Who pays what? Is a mortgage something that needs splitting? What happens if one of you has moved out?
The way mortgages work on divorce depends on how the property is owned, and then how you and your ex are willing to move forward post-separation.

In this Stowe talks webinar, host and Stowe Family Law Partner Ashley Le-Core is joined by Miranda Hickey, Mortgage Adviser at Meet Margo – the mortgage brokerage on a mission to help more women overcome the barriers to homeownership. Together, they’ll unpack the realities of mortgages during divorce and share expert guidance to help you understand your options.

Miranda will explore:
· How mortgages work in divorce
· How lenders work out mortgage affordability
· Transferring the family home into a sole name
· The importance of professional advice to navigate the practical and emotional strains

 

Ashley and Miranda will be on had for a live Q&A at the end of the session.

Tuesday 18th November 

Separation, surveillance and control

Domestic abuse takes on many different forms: physical, emotional, coercive behaviour, psychological etc. Technology-facilitated abuse (tech abuse) is sadly only becoming more prominent as our tech usage increases.
Stowe talks host Ashley Le-Core will be joined by Emma Pickering, Head of Technology-Facilitated Abuse and Economic Empowerment at Refuge in this webinar, to look at how tech is being used by perpetrators to exert control.

In the session, Emma will explore:

· What is tech abuse?
· Spotting the signs in your own relationship or a friend/family member’s
· How tech abuse can continue post-separation
· Where to find support

Emma will be on hand for any questions at the end of the session. Ashley can answer any legal questions relating to divorcing or separating from a perpetrator of abuse.
