What Happens to a Pension in Family Law Proceedings?

A pension is considered an asset and may form part of the overall financial picture considered by the court.

In this video, Clíodhna O’Regan, Associate Solicitor at McCarthy + Co, explains how a Pension Adjustment Order works.

The court considers the financial circumstances and the overall pool of assets before deciding what adjustment, if any, should be made to a pension. If an order is granted, the pension scheme trustees are notified, and the necessary adjustments are made.

Did you know that a will does not always have the final say on who inherits what?

In Ireland, a surviving spouse or civil partner may be legally entitled to a fixed portion of an estate, known as the legal right share.

In our latest blog, Paul McCarthy explains how the legal right share works, what it can mean for the family home, and the circumstances in which this entitlement may be lost.

Whether you’re making a will or dealing with an estate, understanding these rights is important.

Buying a property is an exciting milestone, but there can be a lot to understand before you get the keys.

That’s why Flor McCarthy created the FREE “All-You-Need-To-Know” Guide to Buying Your New Home, written in clear, plain English.

Inside, you’ll find answers to some of the most common questions homebuyers have:

✔️ How does the process work?
✔️ Who does what?
✔️ What should you know before you start?
✔️ What do you need to do to get everything over the line?

Whether you’re a first-time buyer or simply want to better understand the process, it’s a useful place to start.

What if the vendor has already provided one — is another report really necessary?

In this video, Leah Kelly, Associate Solicitor at McCarthy + Co, explains why purchasers should arrange their own independent engineer’s report.

The vendor’s report was prepared for the vendor, not for you. Carrying out your own due diligence gives you an independent assessment of the property before proceeding with what may be one of the largest financial transactions of your life.

As Leah explains, the principle of “buyer beware” applies, and an independent survey can be a worthwhile investment for greater peace of mind.

When a relationship ends, some of the most important questions are often about the children. Where will they live? How will time with each parent be arranged? And who makes important decisions about their lives?

Custody, access and guardianship are three separate legal concepts, but they are often confused with one another.

Understanding the difference can help parents better understand their position and avoid unnecessary conflict.

In our newest Family Law blog, Paul McCarthy explains custody, access and guardianship and what each means for parents and families.

Waiting for a property transaction to complete can be frustrating, particularly when mortgage deadlines, moving dates or rental notice periods are involved.

While some delays are outside your control, good preparation can make a real difference.

In our latest blog, Paul McCarthy looks at why conveyancing delays happen and the practical steps buyers and sellers can take to help keep their transaction moving.

With the average property transaction currently taking around 22 weeks, knowing what paperwork is needed, responding quickly to queries and getting the right advice early can help avoid unnecessary delays.
