The Divorce Business
Divorce is big business these days. Is there a better alternative to expensive lawyers?
Divorce is big business these days, not least in the UK where divorce laws attract super-rich breakups. Davina Katz, partner at the Schillings law firm in London, gives us the inside track on how the rich carve up their wealth. But is there another way? Anna Holligan visits a 'divorce hotel' in the Netherlands where couples are promised a speedy break-up, and entrepreneur Kate Daly talks about her app, amicable, aimed at facilitating a lawyer-less divorce.
