Divorce and separation
“Been married a year. Marital home was my home for 11 years prior to marriage and deeds are in my name only. Husband has his own property owned outright. If we were married for a long enough period of time and then divorced, my husband would be entitled to a share of what was my property but I would not be entitled to any share of his. We have no children either from the marriage or previous relationships..”
“I have heard that because my husband and I have agreed we want to divorce, we can do so just by showing we have irreconcilable differences and therefore don’t have to wait.”
“It is not true that you are compensated for unreasonable behaviour.”
“My husband is going to divorce me because he says I am unattractive and don’t make an effort any more. This is not a valid reason for divorce.”
“If we wait for two years, we can get a ‘quickie’ divorce automatically.”
“If I am the one to file for divorce, I will get a larger share of the assets.”
“We have lived apart for five years, so I can automatically be divorced.”
“My husband has given me the Islamic Talaq divorce in the UK but this is not sufficient to be recognised here as a divorce.”
“I had a Nikkah (Muslim marriage). I am therefore married under UK Law.”
“If my partner behaves badly or messes around, this will affect the outcome of our divorce.”
“You cannot personally serve divorce proceedings on individuals serving on board a Royal Navy warship on active service and travelling under radio silence.”
“Divorce means sorting out everything in one go. That means not just the marriage, but also the house, the kids and all the money issues.”
“Going to a lawyer means going to court.”
