Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the divorce process take?
The duration of a divorce process can vary significantly depending on the complexity of the case and whether both parties agree on key issues. On average, a straightforward divorce can take between 7-8 months , but disputes over finances or child custody may extend this timeframe.
What factors are considered in a financial settlement?
The court considers several factors when deciding on a financial settlement, including the length of the marriage, the needs of each party, the financial and non-financial contributions of both partners, and the welfare of any children involved.
Can I get a restraining order if I’m experiencing domestic violence?
Yes, you can apply for an emergency non-molestation order or occupation order to protect yourself from domestic violence or harassment. We can assist you in applying for these protective measures swiftly and confidentially.
What is the difference between a legal separation and a divorce?
A legal separation allows a married couple to live separately without formally ending the marriage. It is often chosen for religious, financial, or personal reasons. Divorce, on the other hand, legally ends the marriage.
How is child custody determined in a divorce?
Child custody is determined based on the best interests of the child. The court considers factors such as the child’s age, emotional and educational needs, the parents’ ability to care for the child, and the child’s own wishes if they are old enough to express them.
Do I need to go to court to settle financial disputes?
Not necessarily. Financial disputes can often be resolved through negotiation or mediation without going to court. However, if an agreement cannot be reached, court intervention may be necessary to make a binding decision.
Can I change the terms of my child custody arrangement?
Yes, you can request to vary a child custody arrangement if there has been a significant change in circumstances, such as a relocation, a change in the child’s needs, or concerns about the child's welfare.
What happens if my ex-partner does not comply with a court order?
If your ex-partner fails to comply with a court order, such as a custody or financial settlement order, you may need to return to court to enforce the order. We can advise you on the appropriate steps to take.
How do I protect my assets during a divorce?
Protecting your assets may involve various steps, such as seeking legal advice early, gathering financial documentation, and considering prenuptial or postnuptial agreements. We can guide and assist you through these processes to safeguard your financial interests.
Can I get spousal support after the divorce?
You may be entitled to spousal support, also known as maintenance, depending on your financial situation and that of your ex-partner. The court considers factors like the length of the marriage, each party’s earning capacity, and the standard of living during the marriage.
How much does it cost to hire a family law solicitor?
The cost of hiring a family law solicitor depends on the complexity of your case and the level of support required. We can discuss fees and payment options during an initial consultation to give you a clearer idea of the potential costs involved.
