Different lives.
A shared need for expert advice.
WHO WE serveDivorce can be particularly complex when substantial wealth, demanding careers, business interests or public profiles are involved.
For some, the challenge lies in understanding complex remuneration, valuing a business or dividing assets that cannot easily be realised. For others, it may involve protecting privacy, dealing with inherited wealth or reaching a fair settlement where financial circumstances are far from straightforward.
At Ribet Myles, we advise high-net-worth individuals and their spouses on the financial and personal complexities of divorce. We understand that different professions, sources of wealth and family circumstances bring different considerations, and that effective advice begins with understanding the world in which our clients live.
Our experience spans a wide range of professions, industries and financial circumstances.
01
Finance & Investment
Specialist family law advice for professionals working in financial markets, investment management and related sectors.
Complex remuneration, deferred bonuses, carried interest, fund investments and international assets can all create particular challenges on divorce. We understand the distinction between headline wealth and money that is actually available, and the importance of considering how financial interests are structured, valued and realised.
02
Entrepreneurs & Business Owners
Family law advice for entrepreneurs, founders, company directors and business owners.
For business owners, divorce can raise difficult questions about valuation, ownership, liquidity and the future of a business they may have spent years building. We advise on financial settlements involving privately owned companies, partnership interests, shareholder arrangements and complex business structures, recognising that business value and accessible personal wealth are not necessarily the same.
03
Entertainment, Media & Sport
Discreet family law advice for individuals working in entertainment, media and professional sport.
Careers in these fields can involve fluctuating earnings, intellectual property, royalties, image rights, sponsorship arrangements and significant public attention. Financial circumstances may be highly individual, while confidentiality and reputation can be especially important. We provide advice that recognises both the financial complexities and the personal pressures involved.
04
Public Life
Discreet family law advice for individuals working in entertainment, media and professional sport.
For those in public life, divorce may involve particular concerns about privacy, reputation, family relationships and unwanted scrutiny. We understand the importance of discretion, careful judgement and considering appropriate ways to resolve sensitive financial and personal matters.
05
Land, Estates & Rural Wealth
Specialist advice for landowners, farming families and those with substantial rural assets
Land and rural wealth can present distinctive challenges on divorce. Assets may have been held within families for generations, while farms, estates, agricultural businesses and inherited property can involve complex ownership arrangements, valuations and limited liquidity. We recognise the importance of understanding not just financial value, but the wider family and commercial circumstances.
06
Professional Practices
Family law advice for senior professionals and partners in established professional practices.
Partners and senior professionals may have financial interests extending beyond conventional salary and savings, including practice ownership, partnership capital, profit shares, goodwill and pensions. We understand the importance of distinguishing professional income from business ownership and addressing the financial arrangements particular to each profession.
07
Inherited Wealth & Trusts
Specialist family law advice for individuals and families with inherited assets, trusts and complex wealth structures.
Inherited wealth, family trusts and assets held through companies or international structures can raise sensitive and technically complex questions on divorce. The origins of wealth, the nature of ownership, the terms of a trust and the circumstances of the marriage may all be relevant. We approach these matters with care, recognising both the legal complexities and the wider family relationships involved.
Spouses of High Earners & Wealth CreatorsYou don't have to understand their world. We do.
When significant family wealth involves complex business interests, investments or financial structures, understanding the full financial picture can be challenging, particularly where one spouse has traditionally managed the finances. At Ribet Myles, we help spouses navigate these complexities, understand their financial position and make informed decisions about their future.
