Common Questions About Family Law
What is the difference between contested and uncontested divorce?
A contested divorce occurs when parties cannot agree on key issues such as asset division or custody, requiring court intervention. An uncontested divorce happens when both parties agree on all terms, making the process faster and less stressful.
How is child custody determined in South Africa?
Child custody decisions are based on the best interests of the child, including emotional, physical, and educational needs. Courts consider the child’s well-being, stability, and relationship with both parents.
Do I need a lawyer for a maintenance claim?
While not mandatory, having an experienced family lawyer ensures your rights are protected and increases the likelihood of a fair maintenance agreement.
Can I amend a custody or maintenance order?
Yes. Orders can be amended if circumstances change significantly, such as relocation, changes in income, or the child’s needs evolving.
