How does no fault divorce work?
No‑fault divorce removes the need to assign blame. The process focuses on procedure and on resolving financial and child‑related matters fairly and sensibly.
How are assets divided after divorce?
Courts consider factors such as needs, length of marriage, income, pensions, property and future financial requirements.
