Divorce is the legal process of ending a marriage. It can be a complex and emotional process that requires careful consideration and planning. The process of divorce involves the dissolution of the legal and financial ties between the parties and can have far-reaching implications for both parties.
Divorce usually entails the cancelling or reorganising of the legal duties and responsibilities of marriage, thus dissolving the bonds of matrimony between a married couple under the rule of law of the particular country or state. Divorce laws vary considerably around the world, but in most countries divorce requires the sanction of a court or other authority in a legal process, which may involve issues of distribution of property, child custody, alimony (spousal support), child visitation / access, parenting time, child support, and division of debt. In most countries, monogamy is required by law, so divorce allows each former partner to marry another person.
