Divorce fees set to skyrocket in the new year

On 1 January 2013 the fee to apply for a divorce will jump a massive 39% from the current fee of $577 to $800.

Leaving your Divorce Application until the new year will add significantly to the cost.

Australia has a 'no fault' system of Divorce.

There is only one ground for Divorce in Australia:

Irretrievable breakdown of marriage evidenced by having lived separately and apart (which can include periods living under the same roof) for a total period of 12 months.

Divorce is distinct from property settlement, parenting, child support and maintenance - it is the legal end to a marriage.

If you want to avoid the increase in filing fee, contact me urgently to discuss filing your Divorce.
