Divorce & Separation

Untangling the knot? Peter Griffin can help you navigate your way through divorce and separation.

In WA, the divorce system operates on a ‘no fault’ basis, implying that the Court does not consider the reasons behind the dissolution of the marriage. Before initiating a divorce application, both partners must establish that they have lived separately for at least 12 months.

For the sanctioning of a divorce order, it is imperative to establish that

The marriage has irreparably failed.
Suitable provisions have been arranged for any children involved in the marriage who are below the age of 18 years.

A divorce order becomes irrevocable after a period of 30 days post-grant. While it legally terminates the marital relationship, it does not address child custody or property division issues.
