divorce & OTHER FAMILY LAW ISSUES
WHAT IS DIVORCE?
Divorce is the process of legally ending a marriage. In Australia, you can only remarry once your divorce order is final, which is one month and one day after the divorce hearing.
To apply for a divorce, there are criteria that must be satisfied including but not limited to you and your spouse having been separated for at least 12 months.
DOES DIVORCE DETERMINE OTHER FAMILY LAW ISSUES?
The granting of a divorce does not determine other family law issues such as property settlement, spousal maintenance, or care arrangements for children.
It is important to note that the granting of a divorce order does commence a time limitation for commencing property settlement proceedings in the Federal Circuit Court of Australia. It is therefore generally prudent to seek independent legal advice upon an Application for Divorce being filed to ensure that you understand your rights and obligations arising from separation.
