Re: regarding divorce

First of all keep in mind that the divorce is not avaiable for asking. If it is by mutual consent, then it may take one week to one month. However, if the petition is contested by other party, there is no time limit though the HM ACT say it should be decided in six months.

So far as maintenance is concerned it could be one third of your salary to half of it depending upon the facts and circumstances of each case.

Re: regarding divorce

you have not yet got the divorce - have you filed the papers! the time limit and alimony depends upon the individuals of the case - it differs from each and every case! - but it should be basically equal to give a decent livelihood!
