Re: legal charge on ltd company

The answer to your question will be a categorical YES providing you are able to show that this was in effect a family company and thus a matrimonial assets which your wife is likely to dispose of in order to frustrate a proper distribution of matrimonial assets on divorce.

I will be happy to advise on whether the circumstances meet this criteria and if so the necessary procedures.
