We’ve talked before about how there are 2 key phases in Divorce proceedings for a Civil Marriage:
- Phase 1 involves the dissolution and termination of the Civil Marriage.
- In Phase 2, the Court will look at how to handle the Ancillary Matters regarding 3 issues:
- Children, meaning who will get Custody of the Children, Care and Control of the Children, and Access to the Children.
- Maintenance of the Wife and Children – how much should the husband pay to financial maintain the wife and children
- Division of the Matrimonial Assets and Properties – how should the matrimonial assets and properties (such as the matrimonial home, investment properties, cash in bank accounts and other valuables and assets) be distributed between the husband and wife
