Joint or Sole Application?

You can apply for divorce using a Joint Application or a Sole Application

Joint Application

You and the other party can apply together for divorce. This is known as a Joint Application. When making a Joint Application, both parties are required to sign the application (you can each sign on separate days).

Sole Application

If you prefer, you can simply make your own Sole Application without the other party. If you are making a Sole Application, only you need to sign the application. See our FAQs page for further information.

What are Consent Orders?

1

Court approved

A Consent Order is a written agreement that is approved by the Family Court. Separated couples (married or de facto) can apply for Consent Orders to finalise property settlement. You won’t have to attend any court hearings, as your application is processed internally by the Court.
2

Legally binding

When the Court makes Consent Orders for property settlement, the settlement becomes legally binding, providing a safe and effective way for couples to finalise financial matters at the end of a relationship.
3

What do I need?

To apply, you will need to prepare a correctly completed Application document together with a fully drafted Consent Minutes of Order document (the proposed orders requested by the parties). Our property settlement kits make the process simple.

Are there any hidden fees or charges?
We do not have any hidden fees or charges. Our Property Settlement Kits are just $249 (or $349 if you want to include a superannuation split).
The Court will charge a filing fee of $165 to lodge your application. We can assist you to seek a fee exemption which would reduce the Court fee to nil, if eligible.
By comparison, private lawyers typically charge thousands to prepare property settlement consent order documents.

FAQs

What are the grounds for divorce?

Section 48 of the Family Law Act 1975 provides that the grounds for divorce are that the marriage has broken down irretrievably.

In order to satisfy the Court of the breakdown, you must demonstrate that you have been separated for at least 12 months and there is no likelihood of resuming your marriage.
