The Divorce Handbook
This book explains simply and clearly the various legal procedures which govern marriage and divorce among different religious communities in the country. Highlights: The procedure for getting married in court; Common - and unusual - grounds for divorce or annulment of marriage; when you should seek annulment of your marriage rather than a divorce; When judicial separation may be preferable to a divorce; The laws governing the grant of maintenance to a dependant spouse; The legal rules which apply to questions of child custody and support; How property gets divided between the divorcing couple; How long it takes to obtain a divorce; How expensive it is; The best way to get divorced. Divorce is a traumatic affair, not only for the couple concerned and their children; often even their respective parents, brothers, sisters and friends get dragged into a messy, bitter and prolonged dispute. Then, too, rarely do divorce-seekers realise what all it involves; typically lawyers don’t give you the full picture right in the beginning and, even if they do, the implications don’t always sink in. This book is essential reading for anyone who may be contemplating marriage or divorce. It is equally useful for marriage counsellors and social workers for the clear perspective it offers about the options and legal rights pertaining to marriage and divorce - minus all the daunting legal jargon.
