Divorce

A married pair must engage in the legal procedure of divorce to dissolve their union. Only married couples are eligible for divorce, and a judge alone can issue one. Once the procedure is complete, a court will grant you a divorce certificate as proof that your marriage has ended.

 

To obtain a divorce, you must demonstrate that one of the following three things has happened in your marriage:

• you and your spouse have separated and have lived apart for at least one year; or

• your spouse has been physically or mentally cruel to you, making it intolerable to continue living together; or

• your spouse has committed adultery.

Consulting a divorce lawyer prior to filing a divorce application also helps to educate you on rights or obligations you are required by law to observe.
