Do I need a lawyer to get divorced?
You can apply for divorce online through the Federal Circuit and Family Court. But many people choose to work with a lawyer to:
Ensure the application is completed correctly
Deal with situations where you’ve lost contact with your spouse
Handle service of documents
Advise on parenting and property matters connected to the divorce
Time limits after divorce
It’s important to know that once a divorce is finalised, you have 12 months to start property settlement or spousal maintenance proceedings. Acting early avoids the stress of running out of time.
