There is a number of steps that should be considered when you are planning to construct a divorce application:
A smooth and agreeable divorce process will not only benefit you, but it will also help minimise the impact on any children involved. Adequate planning can help to save time, money, reduce conflicts and reduce stress. When planning to leave any relationship safety is the number one concern. Always know that there are services out there to support you, your children and even your pets.
When preparing a divorce application, it is necessary to understand the legal aspects of divorce to be enabled to make informed decisions. We can help you to understand these rules and your rights to make the situation less intimidating.
By consulting with a lawyer, you can be guided step-by-step through the legal process. We can be with you every step of the way. At Bilson Law, we will support you and your best interests.
Division of assets is a major consideration of divorce. The time limit to commence court proceedings for property settlement will expire 1 year from the date that the divorce is absolute. At Bilson Law we will ensure that you are informed about any risks that may be applicable for your matter.
With a family-oriented approach, we not only care about your best interest, but we also aspire to serve the best interests of any children involved. We can aid in the development of care arrangements.
Divorce is a significant change, and a lawyer is not the only specialist we suggest. It is important to stay on top of your mental wellbeing and therefore we suggest counselling or therapy where required not only for you but also for any children involved.
It will also be important that you review your estate planning documents at the time of obtaining a divorce too. A divorce will remove your ex-spouse from your Will by operation of section 13 of the Succession Act. A previous Power of Attorney and Guardianship appointment needs to be formally revoked, making a new Power of Attorney and Enduring Guardian does not revoke your previous appointment.
