Statutory Principles: Section 25, Matrimonial Causes Act 1973

In English family law, there is no automatic 50/50 entitlement to home equity. Under Section 25 of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973, the first consideration is always the welfare and housing needs of any dependent children. Factors such as mortgage borrowing capacity, individual earning powers, and pension values are balanced together during mediation to agree a practical settlement.
