How do I get divorced in Auckland?

Divorcing in New Zealand can be relatively straightforward if both partners agree to the separation and have been living apart for at least two years. In such cases, you can handle the process on your own by filling out a divorce form and submitting it to the court. This streamlined approach is ideal for amicable separations where both parties are in agreement, making the process faster and less costly. However, if there are disputes over assets, child custody, or financial support, seeking legal advice is recommended to ensure a fair resolution.

Common Questions

When do you need a divorce lawyer Auckland?

How can I protect my children's financial rights when we split up?
To protect your children's financial rights, work with a family lawyer to establish a legally binding child support agreement and custody arrangement.
I'm the only one generating income, will my spouse get a share in my property?
In general yes, in Auckland, relationship property laws usually split assets equally, regardless of income contribution during the marriage. If you believe that there are exceptions in your case, you can talk to us and we will provide you with a legal advice.
Who has to pay for child support if we split up?
Both parents are responsible for child support, with contributions determined by income and living arrangements, especially if the child is still a minor and even if the latter is in the custody of only one parent.
My spouse has incurred debts for personal use, will I share in the payment?
You may be liable for part of the debt if it's classified as relationship property, even if it was for personal use.
Can my husband force me to sell the family home?
Not without a legal agreement or court order, but the family home is typically considered relationship property and subject to division.
Will I still provide for my kids after I divorce my spouse?
Yes, as both parents are legally required to contribute to the financial needs of their children post-divorce.
