Is dating a separated woman adultery?
Couples who are separated, whether informally or legally, are still married in the eyes of the law, regardless of how independent their lives have become. This means that if either spouse has a sexual relationship with another person during the separation period, they have probably committed adultery.
Can you legally separate and live in the same house?
You can be separated from your spouse even if you are living in the same house. There is no legal or official document to complete to say you and your spouse are separated.
How do I get a divorce without being broke?
You can use litigation, mediation, arbitration, collaborative divorce or cooperative divorce. You can hire a lawyer to represent you, hire a lawyer just to consult with you, or to draft your documents, or you can do your divorce yourself.
Who pays legal costs in divorce?
Section 117 of the Family Law Act 1975 (Cth) states that couples who separate and go to Court will usually pay their own costs. However, it is possible to be awarded an order for your costs in certain circumstances, at the discretion of the Judge.
