McAlister Family Law chosen as one of The Times Best Law Firms

Best Law Firms 2022 - The Times

McAlister Family Law chosen as one of The Times Best Law Firms 2022

Only 200 of the 10,000 firms in England and Wales made it into The Times Best Law Firms 2022. We are honoured to have been chosen.

Statista, an international market research firm working with The Times, asked solicitors and barristers in England and Wales to recommend the best law firms in any of 26 categories covering business, public and private-client fields.

To make sure the survey was fair, respondents were not allowed to choose their own law firm, and technology and other scrutiny was put in place to prevent anyone from voting more than once.

Those with the most votes from more than 4,500 respondents made it into The Times Best Law Firms 2022.

Amanda McAlister, Managing Partner, said: “When McAlister Family Law launched four years ago, with our unique business model, many in the legal sector said it could not work. Today, our multi award-winning practice is revealed as one of only 200 law firms in the country to make the grade as one of The Times’ Best Law Firms. This amazing accolade is down to the sheer talent, hard work and dedication of everyone in our team, and the fantastic support of Beyond Law Group. My personal thanks go to everyone involved – I genuinely could not be more proud of our truly excellent people.”

Matt Fleetwood, Beyond Law Group founder, added: “This national recognition is an absolute credit to Amanda and her team, and affirms that visions really do become reality.”

Why autumn is a busy time for divorce lawyers

September busy month for divorce lawyers

Why autumn is a busy time for divorce lawyers

It’s commonly supposed that the New Year is a popular time for disgruntled spouses to make enquiries about filing for divorce, and certainly that’s true, but for the divorce lawyer, this autumn is proving to be just as busy.

Why might this be so?  Associate Aaron Williams explains.

Often it’s down to one or more of three factors:

* Thanks to the summer holidays, families have spent more time together than usual, and in close proximity, leading to fault lines in the relationship being exposed

* Established routines to which everyone is accustomed throughout the rest of the year are disrupted

* For many parents, the cost of childcare throughout the summer, plus the expense of going on holiday, can be a tipping point

It’s fair to say these factors tend to feature primarily in relationships that are already under strain. And we divorce solicitors also receive queries from couples already separated who, after what might have been a tense summer, seek to change the arrangement imposed on them by a family court.  Add into the mix the undeniable tensions created by the pandemic and there’s no doubt many relationships have had their fault lines exposed in a very unforgiving way.

What happens next?

Although the No-Fault Divorce Act received Royal Assent in June 2020, the reforms have not yet come into force. Ministers announced that the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020 will come into force on 6 April 2022, allowing married couples to divorce without assigning blame or fault.

This means that your divorce petition must prove the marriage has irretrievably broken down by evidencing one of five, specific, statutory facts:

* adultery

* unreasonable behaviour

* desertion, and you have been separated for two years (in practice, this is rare, and difficult to prove)

* two years’ separation, with agreement by both that there should be a divorce (and it’s worth considering that this two years of separation in itself provides a “cooling-off” period – a time for reflection)

* five years’ separation (the consent of the Respondent is not needed)

Although there is no legal requirement for you to appoint a solicitor to handle your divorce and prepare your petition on your behalf, people who attempt to conduct their own divorces without the support and advice of a solicitor are often not aware of the issues it could present in the future, particularly those relating to finances.

For example, finalising your divorce itself is not the only element to separation. Whilst the finances are inextricably linked, a clean break order is required from the Court to sever your link from one another financially. In the absence of getting a clean break order from the court, your spouse – even after divorce – has the capacity to make an application against your estate.

Therefore (hypothetically) should you win the lottery post-separation, your former spouse could make an application for a portion of your winnings.

The best thing to do is speak to a family law solicitor

Doubtless you won’t be surprised then when I say your best course of action is to seek the advice of a family law solicitor as soon as possible.

Whatever the reason, if you or someone you know needs the support of a Family Law Solicitor this September or indeed at any time please do get in touch. We’re here to help you.

Beyond Group targets strategic growth as turnover hits £7.5 million

Beyond Group targets strategic growth

Beyond Group targets strategic growth as turnover hits £7.5 million

Beyond Group, encompassing specialist practices McAlister Family Law and Beyond Corporate continues strong growth with increased revenue and Group-wide recruitment.

Manchester and Cheshire-based Beyond Group has announced a 20% increase in annual turnover to £7.5 million with multiple, Group-wide new recruits up to partner level, and key promotions.

The Group currently comprises corporate law practice, Beyond Corporate and specialist family and children law practice, McAlister Family Law, both of which have grown exponentially despite the challenges of the past 18 months, in response to an increasing demand for the Group’s services.

Now in its fourth year of trading, Beyond Group began as a specialist concept which would bring corporate and consumer legal services together, a concept which has rarely been successful in the UK but which Beyond Group has undoubtedly achieved. Many firms offer an effective corporate law service, and there are many flourishing consumer law practices, but few bring corporate and consumer together on the same scale, and with the same success, of the Group.

“A significant part of our success has been bringing in the right people to run the specialist practices,” said Matt Fleetwood, founder and head of Beyond Group. “Jim Truscott, head of our corporate practice and Amanda McAlister, head of our family law practice, have both worked in top international law firms and were excited about what we could achieve together. The Group’s success clearly demonstrates that what we offer is what clients – and lawyers – want.”

There has been a significant number of new people recruited and new practice areas launched: top litigation lawyer Dónall Caherty has been brought in to head the Group’s dispute resolution team, and he has been joined by Oisin Quinn and Matthew O’Brien. The Group’s highly rated employment team has been bolstered by the recruitment of director Lucy Flynn, and Beyond Corporate’s real estate team has grown with the recruitment of partner Owen McKenna and specialist construction associate Moe Yassin. McAlister Family Law has recruited two highly experienced partners, Ruth Hetherington and Caroline Bilous, further developing its private children law team.

And in the Group’s latest development, renowned conveyancing lawyer Sarah Edwards has been brought in, to head soon-to-be-launched Beyond Conveyancing, which has been developed in response to demand for conveyancing services from existing clients, and multiple enquiries from the wider market, including probate lawyers.

Matt added: “We asked our people, and our wider community, what they wanted from us and we have responded to their needs. As a result, the Group’s Manchester and Cheshire offices have undergone a full refurbishment, specifically designed to create a dynamic and inspiring working environment. And, unlike the majority of law firms throughout the UK, the Group did not make a single redundancy, nor ask its people to take a pay cut and did not furlough any employees throughout the pandemic. We are currently shortlisted for Lockdown Business of the Year in the Greater Manchester Business Awards, and I think that says a lot about how much we take care of our people, and our clients.”

Amanda McAlister, who leads the award-winning McAlister Family Law, said: “The great thing about the Group is that it is made up of specialist, independent practices which collaborate at strategic as well as operational levels, as well as cross-referring and consulting on multi-discipline cases. Culturally the wider Group is brilliant for our young people – they benefit from a strong mentoring programme, diverse forms of networking and are part of a dynamic organisation with human perspective at its heart.”

Jim Truscott, who heads Beyond Corporate’s corporate law team, added: “The Group and its practices continues to attract high calibre clients, and its growth is down to the ever-increasing demand for its services. Our people are best in class: committed, enthusiastic about our plans for growth and all of them play a vital role in making the Group such an exciting place to be.”

Matt added: “The calibre of our people is outstanding. Our culture is one where we work hard and support one another, and that culture really came into its own during the multiple lockdowns and its significant challenges. Now we’re about to launch the third specialist practice within the Group and are looking forward to announcing further recruitment and growth in the autumn – watch this space!”

We welcome two new recruits: Brigid O’Malley and Stephanie Eastwood

We welcome two new recruits

We’re delighted to announce the recruitment of Brigid O’Malley as Associate and Stephanie Eastwood as solicitor. Both join the team in response to a significant increase in new enquires in both the divorce and finance and children law divisions.

 

Pictured left to right: Brigid O’Malley, Amanda McAlister and Stephanie Eastwood.

Beyond Group’s specialist Family and Children Law practice, McAlister Family Law, has announced the recruitment of Brigid O’Malley as Associate and Stephanie Eastwood as solicitor. Both join the team in response to a significant increase in new enquires in both the divorce and finance and children law divisions.

The practice has climbed the rankings in both Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners year on year; the Group has offices in Manchester city centre and throughout Cheshire. The two new appointees reflect the continued demand for its expertise both in divorce and finance and children law matters.

Brigid, who studied Law at Leeds Metropolitan (now Beckett) University, graduated in 2009 and completed her LPC at the College of Law in Chester in 2010, where she gained a distinction. She qualified as a solicitor in 2014, and acts on behalf of clients seeking advice and assistance in relation to family matters that includes divorce, financial proceedings, civil partnership dissolution, nullity, domestic abuse, and children proceedings. A key member of the Divorce and Finance team, she also has considerable experience in private children law.

Brigid is an accredited Police Station Representative and is also experienced in criminal law, having represented clients at Police stations and magistrates court, and instructing counsel at Crown Court, including handling cases involving serious sexual assault and violent crime. She is particularly experienced in assisting both victims and alleged perpetrators of domestic violence within the family.

Over the last twelve months, the award-winning McAlister Family Law has seen significant growth having recruited two specialist partners, four solicitors and three paralegals.

Said Brigid: “McAlister Family Law is a practice absolutely committed not only to divorce and related finance work, but also to the welfare of children through its unique specialist children teams. To have the opportunity of being able to work on both is incredible.”

Stephanie graduated from Liverpool John Moores University in 2016, where she went on to gain her LPC. She began her career as a paralegal whilst still at university, working first in the field of Personal Injury claims, before going on to specialise in Family Law. She has joined the practice’s specialist children team and will represent both children and parents on all matters including child abduction, child arrangements and adoption.

Stephanie said: “I’m thrilled to join such a forward-thinking family law practice, and to be part of the wider Beyond Group. McAlister Family Law is home to one of the countries’ leading children law practices, having more than eight solicitors on the Law Society Accredited children panel. I am so looking forward to working with such a highly regarded, specialist team.”

Amanda McAlister, managing partner of McAlister Family Law, added: “I’m delighted to welcome Brigid and Stephanie on board. Both are very talented family law solicitors and bring skills and experience that complement the already comprehensive offering here at McAlister Family Law. Like everyone within our practice, they are dedicated to delivering the very highest level of service to our clients.

“They will, I am sure, make a significant contribution to the team as we continue to grow as a practice and cement our reputation as one the UK’s leading family law practices.”

Beyond Group Head Matt Fleetwood said: “The recruitment of Brigid and Stephanie is further evidence of the Group’s strategic growth and most importantly, they are a perfect fit for the Group’s culture and values. McAlister Family Law has been extraordinarily successful since we established the practice three years ago, and it’s great to see it expand further with these new recruits.”

Rylan Clark-Neal announces he and his husband of six years are to divorce

Rylan Clark-Neal to divorce

Rylan Clark-Neal and husband Dan are to divorce

The hugely popular television presenter Rylan Clark-Neal has announced he and his husband, Dan, are to divorce. In a statement released on 28 June, Rylan said: “I have made a number of mistakes which I deeply regret and have inevitably led to the breakdown of our marriage. I have taken time away from work as I am not in a good place at the moment and am seeking help.”

Our Managing Partner and award-winning family law expert Amanda McAlister explains how divorce in a same sex relationship will be enacted.

It is reported that Rylan’s well-publicised desire to have children, and Dan’s longing for a TV career, may well be the reason for the split, with insiders saying: “they just couldn’t resolve their differences”.

Whether this is true or not, one partner wanting children and the other wanting to focus on their career is certainly not an uncommon reason for a couple deciding their desire to pursue different life choices means they no longer wish to be together, and therefore filing for divorce.

Irretrievable breakdown

In the courts of England and Wales there is only one ground for divorce and that is the “irretrievable breakdown of the marriage” as set out in the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973.  What this means is that one or both parties to the marriage are not willing, or do not want, to continue living and being in a relationship with one another, having determined that the marriage is over for good.

Whilst there is one ground for divorce, there are five legally accepted facts (or reasons) for a divorce to take place.  Although a no-fault basis divorce is in the pipeline and legislation is planned for April 2022, unfortunately until then, we are still working on a fault-based system.

What are the Five Facts?

In the Petition, the Petitioner (the person who issues the divorce Petition) must prove that the marriage has broken down irretrievably by evidencing one of five, specific, statutory facts:

  • The Respondent’s adultery
  • The Respondent’s unreasonable behaviour
  • Desertion – the Respondent must have deserted the Petitioner for at least two years (in practice, this is rare, and difficult to prove)
  • two years’ separation with agreement by both that there should be a divorce
  • five years’ separation (the consent of the Respondent is not needed)

The most common facts relied upon are adultery, or unreasonable behaviour.

One crucial difference

There is, however, one crucial difference for same sex divorces as opposed to heterosexual divorces, and that is that adultery cannot be used in a same sex divorce. This is due to the current law defining adultery as when “your husband or wife has had sexual intercourse with someone else of the opposite sex”.

On that basis – that adultery can only be grounds for divorce where there has been sexual intercourse between two people of the opposite sex – sexual intimacy between two people of the same sex is not “adultery” for the purposes of obtaining a divorce, if one of those people is in a same sex marriage.

However, in same sex marriages, although adultery is not a ground for divorce, the infidelity could be used as an example of unreasonable behaviour.  Apart from the difference in the terms of the ground of a divorce, the application process is the same for same-sex and opposite-sex couples.

Beyond Group’s specialist Family and Corporate practices promote four key individuals

McAlister Family Law and Beyond Corporate continue to grow as Beyond Group announces annual promotions.

Beyond Group has announced four significant promotions across its specialist corporate law and family law practices.

Angeliki is part of Beyond Corporate’s core corporate transactional team; Paul and Aaron are part of McAlister Family Law’s divorce and finance team, and Jess works within the children team.

Amanda McAlister, Managing Partner of McAlister Family Law, said: “These have been a challenging 12 months, particularly for those people involved in court hearings which have largely been held remotely and which have demanded a lot of family law solicitors.

We are absolutely delighted to recognise Paul, Aaron and Jess’ hard work and dedication with these promotions.”

Jim Truscott, who heads Beyond Corporate’s corporate law team, added: “Angeliki has worked extremely hard since qualification, demonstrating tremendous commitment to the corporate team and the wider Beyond Group, and we are extremely pleased to be able to see her progress with us as she moves to the next stage of her career, particularly as the Corporate Law team continues to grow as a result of increasing demand for its services.”

“These promotions are very well deserved. We are proud to see each of them progress their careers with Beyond Group and we celebrate their commitment and success.”

The Bill and Melinda Gates’ divorce

Bill and Melinda Gates divorce

The Bill and Melinda Gates’ divorce

Our managing partner, Amanda McAlister, offers her expert opinion on the news that Bill and Melinda Gates are to divorce, and looks at some of the issues involved.

I woke this morning to the news that Bill and Melinda Gates were to get divorced. Minutes later my phone starting ringing, as I took one request after another from journalists wanting to cover the story and get my opinion on what a later-in-life divorce involves. It’s no exaggeration to say that almost every media outlet around the world is keen to look closer into why this multi-billionaire couple would want to part after 27 years of a seemingly very successful marriage.

Gates, 65, the fourth richest man in the world, founded Microsoft in 1975 and met his future wife Melinda in 1987, the year he became the world’s youngest billionaire. In 2000 they established the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. 

They have three children – Jennifer, 25, Rory, 21, and Phoebe, 18 – and in the message announcing their divorce, they wrote:

“After a great deal of thought and a lot of work, we have made the decision to end our marriage.

“Over the last 27 years, we have raised three incredible children and built a foundation that works all over the world to enable all people to lead healthy, productive lives. We continue to share a belief in that mission and will continue to work together at the foundation, but we no longer believe we can grow together as a couple in this next phase of our lives. We ask for space and privacy for our family as we begin to navigate this new life.”

Prenups and separation agreements

Court documents reveal that the couple do not have a prenuptial agreement. We’re told Melinda, 56, filed for divorce at a court in Washington state, saying “this marriage is irretrievably broken” when asked to explain the split, also revealing there was no prenuptial agreement when they wed on a Hawaiian golf course in 1994.

However, famously Bill used a pro and con list on a whiteboard to decide to whether or not to ask Melinda to marry him, so I suspect the couple may well have approached the ending of their marriage in the same carefully thought-out manner.

Indeed, the document, filed Monday in King County Superior Court in Seattle, notes that the pair has a “separation agreement.” A separation agreement is usually signed at the end of a marriage and lays out the terms of the split – it will, apparently, dictate how the couple will divide up their assets, which include the family home, a $125million compound overlooking Lake Washington on the outskirts of Seattle, a mansion in San Diego, a Santa Fe ranch, a countryside retreat in Wellington, Florida, a lakeside lodge in Wyoming which used to be home to Buffalo Bill and a garage full of Porsches, Ferraris and Lamborghinis. In fact, the Gates fortune is estimated at well over $100 billion, so I’m not surprised Melinda has not requested spousal support, according to the filing.

Divorcing after a long marriage

It’s interesting to note that there has been a significant increase in the number of couples filing for divorce who have been married for more than 20 years. I think it’s significant that the Gates’ youngest child recently turned 18: it’s reasonable to assume the couple wanted to wait for all their children to reach adulthood before they announced their formal separation, and I would also say it takes guts to do this after such a long marriage – perhaps even more so when your relationship, and your life, is so public.

How would this divorce be treated here?

Technically, separation agreements aren’t legally enforceable under UK law. But if both parties have been open and honest about their finances and taken independent legal advice about the agreement, then it’s entirely likely the court will decide you should stick to it.

However, under our jurisdiction there is also what’s known as the “millionaire defence”. This is a term created following the case of Thyssen-Bornemisza v Thyssen-Bornemisza (No) [1985] FLR 1069 where a wealthy party put forward a defence to providing full disclosure, on the basis that he had sufficient wealth to pay a lump sum or maintenance to the financially dependent party. In other words, why should the court go to the trouble, time and expense of investigating the millionaire’s means, when it is clear that he/she can meet whatever reasonable order the court is likely to make?

This defence causes some controversy as the court has an obligation to consider the parties’ financial resources properly. Furthermore, in order for the court to conclude that an order is fair and reasonable, it must consider the full and frank disclosure of all material facts, documents and other material. Nevertheless, it remains a viable option for the very wealthy, who are hopeful of keeping the precise details of their finances entirely private.

Keep it respectful

When Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his wife MacKenzie announced their split after 25 years of marriage, they emphasised that the decision was mutual. But even when a couple part on amicable terms, the financial untangling is likely to be complex, simply because the sums involved, and the assets held, are so huge. However, neither party has said anything derogatory in public about the other, and both have moved on: MacKenzie married again two years after the divorce, her ex-husband Jeff has been with his girlfriend for two years.

I hope Bill and Melinda Gates both go forward in positivity and enjoy a fulfilling and happy future, and in particular I applaud their decision to continue to work together on their charitable foundation – showing respect for one’s ex is vital if they are to be a couple who, instead of being known for how wrong they got their divorce, are known for getting it right.
