Report
Financial proceedings are described as "ancillary" or "ancillary relief" following a divorce. However they are often the most. Pensions are an important part of a family's financial security, and English law provides for pensions to be shared where. Pre-nuptial contracts are standard practice in many countries and have quickly gained popularity in England and Wales.

Grounds for Divorce
Report
In English law the ground for a divorce is irreconcilable breakdown of a marriage. This is established by adultery on the part of a spouse, unreasonable behaviour on the part of a spouse, mutual agreement to divorce plus 2 years separation, or 5 years separation. Adultery or unreasonable behaviour does not have to occur pre-separation and the petitioner does not have to definitively prove the allegations.
Divorce Rights
Report
Most divorces do not require the consent of the other party. The petitioner of divorce can act unilaterally, unless the divorce is based on 2 years separation with mutual agreement. Both the partners have potential rights arising from the marriage, such as spousal maintenance (in addition to any child maintenance), transfer of property, or lump sum payments.
