Paul1405, "You can get divorced for about $300 and you don't need a lawyer"

You are in fairy land.

What about leaving the political spin at the door and having a reasonable discussion?

OTB, you don't know what your talking about. Not long ago I got divorced myself, done all the work, very easy, not a problem if you have a bit of nouse that is, and guess what it cost me about $300 to lodge the paperwork in the Family Court, so who's in fairy land. A half wit could do it without a lawyer, but in your case I think you would need Frank Gallbally and a team of QC's, to tell you how you get custody of the monkeys.
A friend of mine, she done the same thing, so more than me has done it for $300.

Paul1405,

What I said to you was unfair and after reading what you did, I apologise.

I suggest your case and your friend's might be exceptions though.

OTB, I too appoligise as my post was terse, sarcastic and unfair.
In the case of divorce, if there is no children and custody issues and assets have been divided and you both are amicable, the steps to obtain a divorce are fairly straight forward. You download the forms, get then signed by a JP along with a form from your ex. You lodge it in the Family Court pay a once only fee of about $300, no blame involved and certainly no lawyer. In a couple of months after lodgement its all finalised, no appearance in court required, If things are less amicable and the lawyers get hold of it well then the sky's the limit on costs.
A couple of years back I was the executor for an estate worth less than a $1 million. A third party not mentioned in the will made a claim on the estate. The claim was erroneous, claiming dependency as a child on the deceased in the 1940's early 50's with affidavits based on fabrications. Contrary affidavits had to be prepared and mediation had to take place. To piss this person off cost a payout of $50 plus $70k legals fees, and it didn't even make it to court. If it had made it to the courts the legal fees alone could have run into $300k. Even though the claim was erroneous it wasn't worth the risk of court.
