Which level of Court should I issue in?

Usually, the non-fault based divorces are heard in the County Court – this includes the grounds of two years separation and consent and a divorce on the grounds of five years separation.

The more contentious and complicated divorces are heard in the High Court – for example divorces on the grounds of adultery and unreasonable behaviour.

The amount and value of assets in a marriage can also determine where the divorce will be heard.
