Waggott ‘meal ticket’ appeal leaves lawyers waiting for maintenance guidance – Charlotte Bradley comments in Law Society Gazette

Charlotte Bradley, head of Kingsley Napley's family & divorce team, comments in Law Society Gazette about the Supreme Court's decision re. Waggott v Waggott. 

Charlotte Bradley, partner and head of family at London firm Kingsley Napley, said in April the Court of Appeal ruling would be used by family lawyers around the country as a tool to obtain clean breaks for clients who had the biggest earning capacity.

Bradley added: ‘Waggott will provide further armoury for husbands or the main breadwinner to achieve a clean break straightaway, but the case will not stop arguments on this thorny issue until there is further clarity from the courts on maintenance and reform of divorce laws generally.’
