Frequently Asked Questions
Welcome to our Family Law FAQ section. We understand that legal matters involving your family can be complex and emotionally challenging. To help you get started, we've compiled answers to some of the most common questions our clients ask.
What areas of family law do you handle?
We handle a wide range of family law matters, including divorce, child custody, spousal support, property division, adoption, and domestic violence cases.
How long does a typical divorce process take?
The duration varies depending on the complexity of the case and whether it's contested or uncontested. Uncontested divorces can be finalized in as little as 3-6 months, while contested divorces may take 1-2 years or longer.
Do I need a lawyer for my family law case?
While it's possible to represent yourself, having an experienced solicitor can significantly improve your chances of a favourable outcome, especially in complex cases or those involving children.
How is child custody determined?
Child custody is determined based on the best interests of the child. Factors considered include each parent's ability to care for the child, the child's relationship with each parent, and sometimes the child's preferences if they're old enough.
Can I modify a child custody or support agreement?
Yes, existing orders can be modified if there's a significant change in circumstances. This could include changes in income, relocation, or shifts in the child's needs.
What's the difference between legal and physical custody?
Legal custody refers to the right to make important decisions about the child's upbringing, such as education and healthcare. Physical custody refers to where the child primarily resides.
