How long will it take?
The length of time it takes to get a divorce, from beginning to end, varies from court to court and in each case. It is impossible to predict exactly how long it will take, because during the proceedings problems may arise which cause delay. At best, it will take from four to six months. The time it takes, and the stress involved in the process, can be greatly reduced by keeping on top of dates and going to the court yourself to lodge documents. If you use a Solicitor make sure they have applied for the various stages when they arise. Financial and child-related matters have separate timescales of their own.
