Testimonial from a very happy Collaborative Law participant

A Testimonial
for Bev Clark
Collaborative Lawyer August 2011

Here we are, six months on from one of the most difficult times of our lives; when we decided to ‘formally’ separate after 28 years of marriage. It took a few years to come to this and to face the reality (at least, for me) that the ‘dreaded settlement’ had to be addressed and our separation, leading to divorce, needed to be acted upon. There is only so long one can avoid the troubles in one’s life and then the day must come – change must be made.

What is Divorce?

It is often the case when I ask a client why they have come to see me they respond by saying “I want a divorce”. When exploring that statement further it becomes clear that the client themselves don’t know what they are asking for.

A Divorce does not in itself deal with or finalise issues such as property division or parenting arrangement of the children of the marriage. A separate and different application is required. A Divorce is the end of the legal union of the marriage. That’s it.

How do you get Divorced?

Moving to new location

In December, Belperio Clark is moving to a new location:

11 Halifax St
Adelaide SA

This is about 300 – 400 m from our current location.  Car parking will be available on King William (2 Hr ) and in Halifax (varied).

A specific date for the relocation will be announced soon.
