Property Settlement FAQs
Can a property settlement agreement be changed?
Yes, a property settlement agreement can be altered if both parties agree to the changes. In situations where circumstances have significantly changed since the original agreement, it’s possible to have the agreement revisited. This requires legal advice and, at times, a court’s intervention.
Can you divorce without a property settlement?
Divorce and property settlement are two separate legal processes. You can finalise a divorce without completing a property settlement; however, it’s often advised to settle property matters before finalising the divorce to ensure a clear financial separation.
Can you get a divorce before the property settlement?
Yes, you can get a divorce before completing the property settlement. However, it’s important to note that once a divorce is finalised, there is a time limit of 12 months to apply for a property settlement through the court.
How long after separation can you do a property settlement?
