Fixed Fee Divorce Lawyers – Springwood

If you are married and the relationship breaks down, it is not enough to simply separate. You must file in court for a Divorce Order (formerly called a Divorce Certificate or Decree). If you do not do this and you pass away, your ex-partner will be entitled to claim a significant part (or all) of your assets.

Eligibility Criteria for Divorce in Australia

In order to be able to file for divorce in Australia:

  1. You must be an Australian Citizen or Permanent Resident.
  2. You must be separated for at least 12 months and 1 day.
  3. You must have your marriage certificate.
  4. Your marriage must be broken down with no reasonable likelihood that you will get back together.
  5. If you have been married less than two years you will need to file a counselling certificate.
