Description
The process of ending a marriage or marital union is called divorce. The process of divorcing a couple usually involves the cancellation or reorganization of their legal obligations and responsibilities. This results in the dissolution of matrimony under the law of that particular country. While divorce laws can vary widely around the globe, most countries require the approval of a court or another authority in a legal proceeding. This could include issues such as child custody, visitation / access and child support. Monogamy is required in most countries. Divorce allows one of the former partners to marry another person. Divorce is different to annulment. This declares the marriage null. There are many reasons for divorce. These can range from incompatibility between the spouses or lack of independence to personality clashes. Only the Vatican City, the Philippines and the British Crown Dependency on Sark allow divorce. Non-Muslim Filipinos cannot divorce unless their husband or wife is an alien who meets certain conditions. The Vatican City, an ecclesiastical country, does not have a divorce procedure. Italy (1970), Portugal (1975), Brazil (1977), Argentina (1987), Paraguay (91), [7] Colombia (1991; since 1976, only non-Catholics were allowed to marry), Andorra (1995),[8] Ireland (1996), Chile (2004), and Malta (2011) are some of the countries that have legalized divorcing. Divorce can be both emotionally and physically draining for all involved. There are many ways to get divorced. Each party can hire a lawyer to represent him or her during the divorce process. They can also choose to work with a mediator to help them reach an amicable agreement. Or, each side can hire a collaborative lawyer to help them work with the other in order to resolve their issues and avoid court. You can have a divorce by default, uncontested or contested.
