Divorce

Although there are formal legal processes to end your marriage you do not need a solicitor to apply for a divorce. If you have been married for more than two years and separated for more than 12 months you can apply for a divorce by filling in an application form, from the Family Law Courts Registry, online at divorce.gov.au or DIY divorce kits are available from the Federal Magistrates Court. The kit includes a divorce application form and a guide on how to complete the form. Completed forms can be filed at any Registry.
