Accessible, practical handbook to one of the most technical and pitfall-strewn areas of family law - the valuation and division of pension rights in divorce settlements.

The Pension Advisory Group is a multi-disciplinary group of professionals specialising in the field of financial remedies and pensions on divorce. The original group (PAG1) was formed in June 2017 under the joint chairmanship of Mr Justice Francis and His Honour Judge Edward Hess with the aim of improving understanding of the complex area of law relating to pensions on divorce and enabling more consistent and fairer outcomes. The first Guide to the Treatment of Pensions on Divorce was published in 2019, mainly for the benefit of professionals working in the field. The group reconvened as PAG2 in 2022, again under the joint chairmanship of Mr Justice Francis and His Honour Judge Edward Hess, with many of the original members and a few new ones. PAG2’s purpose was to update and review the PAG1 Guide. This second edition is the product of many years’ work and the collaborative efforts of PAG members. It has the support of the President of the Family Division and the Family Justice Council.
