Now we can help you answer that question with our Divorce Calculator, it gives you a rough financial estimate of what you can expect to receive if a divorce or dissolution takes place.
The first step in getting a divorce involves the filing of several documents at a designated Family Court along with a Court Fee, unless exempt.
Next Stage >
The Court then issues the application and sends a sealed copy of the papers to both you (the petitioner), or your solicitor and who you are divorcing (the respondent).
Next Stage >
The respondent must then file an acknowledgement of service within 7 days, which is sent to the court. If the respondent wishes to defend the divorce, he or she must notify the court within 7 days of service. The respondent then has a further period of 21 days in which to file an answer and / or cross petition.
Next Stage >
Unless defended, once the acknowledgement of service has been received by the court. The petitioner can then apply for the Decree Nisi.
Next Stage >
This is where an application is processed for the Decree Absolute – which basically means finalising the divorce.
