London has become the divorce capital of the world, according to the City’s top lawyers following a Court of Appeal ruling to uphold the largest divorce settlement in UK history.
The court’s decision last week (24 May) to uphold the £48m awarded to the former wife of insurance magnate John Charman caused a strong reaction from family law partners, who claim there are very few jurisdictions where a wife could do better in divorce settlements.
