Pensions on Divorce: A Practitioner’s Handbook is written by a distinguished team of family law and actuarial experts. It explains in an accessible, practical style one of the most technical and pitfall-strewn areas of family law - the valuation and division of pension rights in divorce settlements.

This new 4^th edition provides clear, comprehensive commentary on the law and procedure covering the different types of pensions, the powers and procedures of the court, the actuarial issues involved, and how to deal with the many different situations that can arise. Various public and private pension schemes commonly encountered by practitioners are covered in a clear and straightforward manner. It is a single, authoritative source providing detailed and straightforward analysis on the topics covered, including:

• Different types of pension
