FAQ’s
What is Family Law?
Family Law encompasses legal issues related to family relationships, such as marriage, divorce, child custody, child support, and the division of assets and debts among family members. It aims to address and resolve disputes within a family setup through legal interventions.

How do I file for divorce?
To file for divorce, one must submit a divorce application to the appropriate family court. The process typically requires providing evidence that the marriage has irretrievably broken down, demonstrated by a separation period of at least 12 months.
Detailed requirements can vary by jurisdiction, so it’s advisable to consult legal guidance or the court’s website for specific instructions.
What are the grounds for divorce?
The primary ground for divorce in many jurisdictions is the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage, evidenced by a continuous separation period of at least 12 months. This approach focuses on the fact of marriage breakdown rather than assigning blame or fault to either party.
How does the process of mediation work in family law?
Mediation in family law is a voluntary process where a neutral third party, the mediator, helps the disputing parties reach a mutually acceptable agreement on issues such as divorce, child custody, and property division. The mediator facilitates communication but does not make decisions for the parties.
This process encourages cooperation and can often lead to solutions that are more flexible and suitable for both parties compared to court-ordered judgments.
What does child support cover?
Child support payments are designed to cover the comprehensive expenses associated with raising a child. These expenses encompass the child’s accommodation, education, medical care, and overall welfare.
The objective is to guarantee that children benefit from sufficient economic support from both parents, addressing their requirements like apparel, nutrition, accommodation, and involvement in after-school activities.
