Divorce is strictly a legal process. Only legal issues can be resolved. What a divorce cannot do is punish one party or place blame.

When a divorce action is instituted it mainly entails separation of the communal estate should members be married in community of property or the division of the assets and determining how liabilities will be dealt with. It is important to keep in mind that each divorce is based on its own merits and will not be able to be compared with a friend/family member or colleague’s divorce action.

Divorce actions can initially include custody and maintenance of the Spouse and/or minor children.
