I've a neighbour going through the divorce process. Her husband is very, very well off and she's (and the kids) not got a washer as he's withholding funds in so far as he can. They're living apart these last years.
He can afford the best solicitors and is on an aggressive offensive to ensure she gets little or nothing by way of settlement. She's on free legal aid and can't afford even the most rudimentary of defences.
Given:
Is this done in divorce cases as it is done in personal injury cases? Any one got a recommendation?
Cheers

Given:
- her need to be fully able to defend her position whether unto outright win or to drive him to the negotiation table
- very significant funds involved
... I would have thought it would be possible to find a solicitor willing to take on (after having looked at the bones of the case to satisfy themselves that there's a decent chance of the them obtaining their slice) her case on a no foal, no fee basis. - very significant funds involved
