Divorce

A divorce can only be granted by the Supreme Court, and you must have a divorce if you want to remarry. The court will grant a divorce if you or your spouse demonstrates a breakdown in the marriage by showing:

  • You have been separated (lived apart) for at least one year
  • One spouse committed adultery
  • One spouse was physically or mentally cruel to the other

Separation Agreements

If the two parties can come to a fair agreement on how to settle all of the issues involved in the separation, a separation agreement can be created outside of court. This agreement will contain detailed information such as how your property, finances and time spent with your children will be divided. If you cannot come to an agreement on any issues related to the separation, court may be the best option.
