For those going to get married or already married, I have this quote for you: "The most important thing in life is not how much sacrifice you'd made, or how hard you'd tried; it's the decision you made."

God bless.

Since you also agree to the divorce then dun contest the 1st part.. ie the divorce.

The 2nd part is the Ancillary proceedings... this part you have to contest vigorously as it may screw you up for the rest of your life.

However, if you just want to know the going ons for your own knowledge..... then it is alrite to engage a freelancer as they are generally cheaper. As a guide, a 3-day job is roughly about $1K all-in.

Thank bro, don't you have any contact of the PI can pm me?

Thanks.

What is your grounds for divorce? You cannot use adultery as it happened in 2011..... for adultery to be used as a grounds for divorce must be within 6 months of discovery. The grounds for divorce is important as it will affect your ancillary proceedings.

Bro Ninja Assassin,

If the grounds of divorce is just a normal divorce. And we have agreed what we share. Is possible that I can retain my flat?

"Normal divorce"? You need to give state a reason for the divorce application. There is no such thing as normal divorce.

There are only four grounds you can use to file for divorce
1. Adultery (But must substantiated with photograpic evidence and within 6 months of being caught)
2. Desertion (All reasonable attempts has been made to try and locate person but failed, can file 3 years after the person was last seen or heard)
3. Separation (Normally 3 to 4 years after letter of separation issued, one trick is to backdate the letter so you don't have to wait out the time frame but that is if both parties agrees to it)
4. Unreasonable Behaviour (This is your best option, can use any excuse under the sky, such as her adulterous behaviour has subjected you to undue mental torture you thought you could work it out but find you actually couldn't. She kept making snipe remarks about you and your manhood that why she had those affairs. Bascially it up to you to make her look bad and state anything that is detrimental to her character).

As for retaining the flat thou you are the owner, that is a tough call she might want to fight you for 50% of the flat and make you sell it. Take it from me, a woman can be a real bitch when her own survivor is at stake.

Bro, can you introduce me a good divorce lawyer?

I went to law firm and ask the lawyer. The lawyer told me tat i can file under unreasonable behavior. And give her those bad points of her + having affair ( but I don have proof so she can denied of having affair coz 1 side say only) so can file under unreasonable behavior. But about the flat, I have to pay a lum some of money ( min 20k+ ) coz if not I can't buy flat in the first place. The lawyer say can done within 4 months if everything go smooth. But if not there is charges ( basic charges 3.5k + 2k + 3k ). I don noe is it ok to mention out the charges.

Bro, like to ask tat is the charges very exp? Do I have to pay her a lum some of money? But the lum some of money she can fight more if she want more. I thinking tat the lawyer like overall I have to pay more on the lum some of money and maybe the charges. Bro, what do u all think abt this lawyer? Can gif me any comments?

Thanks bro.

Custody and care/control goes hand in hand cos effectively the parent that has custody of the child gets to decide how to bring the child up.
