We will provide the Following Family Law Services:
A divorce can take between 6-8 months if not disputed, from issuing the Simple Divorce Application (Form 8A) to the Divorce Order. If the divorce or finances are disputed, then this timescale can be longer depending on when such issues are resolved.
If you have agreed your divorce and financial arrangements, then you do not need to attend court. Your divorce will be processed through the court as a paperwork exercise instead. If you have not or are unable to agree your financial arrangements, you will need to attend court.
This usually happens on a voluntary basis, but where one party will not cooperate it can be requested through the Court. Within divorce proceedings, you can make an application to court. The court will then direct the information is disclosed as a requirement of the proceedings.
Outside of Court, even if the opposing party does not disclose all their financial information a settlement and agreement can still be reached.
If you have not put in place a "cohabitation agreement", any of the following could apply.
> Other than child support, you have no automatic right to receive spousal support for yourself from your ex-partner. Entitlement to spousal support is a complex issue that requires sound legal advice.
> If you live in a rented property together and the tenancy is in your ex partner’s sole name you have no right to stay if you are asked to leave.
> If the possessions within the property are owned by or were purchased by your ex-partner, you have no automatic right to a share of those possessions.
Parenting time rights ensure maximum contact with both parents. How much time is in accordance with the "best interests of the children". Provided that there is not a risk of harm to the children, parenting time will be ordered by the Court. It is best to negotiate a parenting schedule by direct discussions or by attending mediation to agree on the way forward. If you cannot agree, an application can be made to the Court. Parenting schedules are not all the same, they depend on the circumstances of the children and the parents.
We do not accept Legal Aid.
