Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a lawyer to get divorced?
While it is possible to represent yourself, we highly recommend hiring an attorney to ensure your rights – especially regarding children and property – are protected and the process goes smoothly.
What is an antenuptial contract?
An antenuptial contract (ANC) is a legal agreement entered into between spouses before marriage to regulate property rights and financial affairs.
How is child maintenance calculated?
Maintenance is based on the child’s needs and the parents’ ability to pay. There are guidelines, but each case is unique.
