This is the formal process by which parties end their marriage. It is generally a simple application to the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia. You need to have been separated for more than 12 months before you can apply. I can help you complete the forms, file and serve them, and appear on your behalf.
You may want to do this yourself. Where there are no complicating factors such as separation under one roof, or children under 18 years of age, the process is one that most people can complete themselves. Do-it-yourself kits are available online.
A divorce is separate from the property settlement, and you do not need to wait until 12 months after separation before taking steps for property settlement.
