Divorce: what you need to know
While divorce formally ends a marriage, it’s important to understand that it doesn’t resolve related issues such as childcare arrangements or financial settlements.
Recent legal changes have introduced ‘no-fault’ divorces, meaning neither party is required to prove fault, and the divorce cannot be challenged. A couple must be married for at least a year to apply for a divorce. For civil partnerships, the legal process is called dissolution.
