Family Divorce Lawyers

Divorce only applies to married people as it concerns the dissolution of the legal bonds of marriage between two adult parties. Divorce does not deal with other pressing matters such as children's residence and contact,child support and maintenance,spousal maintenance or the division of property. 

To legally obtain a divorce you must be able to prove that your marriage has irretrievable breakdown,meaning that you and your spouse are beyond the grounds of reconciliation. You also need to show that you and your partner have been separated for a continuous period of more than 12 months (or 1 year) and there is no reasonable likelihood whatsoever of reconciliation.

Technically, parties may be separated but continue living under the same roof. If this truly reflects your circumstances then you may file a divorce application. You will need to also file with your application appropriate evidence setting out details of your arrangements whilst you were living under the same roof.

Parties may reunite for a period of up to three months without it affecting the prior seperation period. This can assit couples who want to trial a reunion.

Where the parties have been married for less than two years they can only obtain a divorce where they have attended a counselling session or where there are special circumstances.
