I am currently going through a divorce from my husband. I am hoping to agree a financial settlement with him, but he seems to be deliberately running the family business into the ground to make the value look far less for the financial remedy proceedings. What can I do?

I am considering buying my daughter’s house as a rental property as she is getting married and bought a house with her fiancé.... So, what kinds of things should I be aware of from a legal point of view?

Many landlords are under the impression that if a property is rented to a sole tenant, they can automatically repossess the property if that tenant dies. This is, however, not the case if the tenant dies without leaving a Will, or with a Will but without an Executor.

My children were taken into care two years ago when I was unfit and unable to look after them. I was told the plan for them would be adoption, but to date no suitable adopters have been found for them and they are still in foster care. Losing my children was truly devastating and as a result of the effect it had on me, I have since managed to completely turn my life around. I no longer take drugs and I am in a really good place. I desperately want to spend more time with my children. Would it be possible for me to see them more than I am currently allowed to?

I have inherited a house from an aunt who died last year. For various reasons it is taking some time to sort out her estate, but once probate has been granted, I would like to sell the house. However, as it is now worth considerably more than when it was valued for probate, my question is, even though I did not purchase the house, will I have to pay Capital Gains Tax when I sell it?
