Our Immigration Department recently secured a successful outcome for a vulnerable client from Paraguay following an asylum and human trafficking claim.

The case highlights the importance of identifying issues that may not be immediately apparent, particularly where a client has experienced trauma or exploitation.

We are now well into the traditional wedding season, where there are newlyweds who discussed the possibility of a pre-nuptial agreement but for a multiple of reasons did not have their intentions formalised before they married.

This does not mean that there is nothing further that can be done, if the intention remains or, if they have decided they would prefer financial certainty if the marriage were to break down.

While prenuptial agreements or “pre nups” are written agreements entered by a couple prior to marriage or civil partnership, couples can enter into a post nuptial agreement after the marriage which serves the same purpose.
