George Mathieson
George has been involved in the field of pensions and divorce for 15 years, but for the past 12 years it has been his sole business interest, having established Mathieson Consulting Ltd for this purpose. He has acted as SJE in over 4,000 cases, and as a party expert in many others. Perhaps rather worryingly, an increasing number of his instructions are in cases where he is asked to help solicitors who are being sued for professional negligence in historic divorce cases involving pensions. George has lectured extensively on the subject, and had many articles published. He was a founding member of the Multi-Disciplinary Pension Advisory Group, under the joint Chairmanship of Mr Justice Francis and HHJ Hess, which sought ways to improve and make more consistent, the treatment of pensions in divorce proceedings.

Mena is the co-author of the Unbundling Family Legal Services Toolkit, the author of the Matrimonial Finance Toolkit (2017) and the Matrimonial Finance Handbook (2020) published by the Law Society.
