Money involved in divorce
My mother and my father are going to divorce as both my mother and myself have been phsycially and emotionally abused whilst living with him. He is financially very well off however my mother has a lot of investments shared with him from her inheiritance, she is worried that she would not be able to get any money out of her divorce. Can we get money compensation? He has been arrested twice for child abuse.

The investments may have to be liquidated to ensure that a property settlement actually delivers some assets to your mother.
I am reluctant though to go much further with this advice if you are under 18?
