Six Year Anniversary of the Criminalisation of Coercive Control

29th December 2021 marked the sixth anniversary of the Serious Crime Act 2015. This act made it so that coercive and controlling behaviour would now be classified as a criminal offence. Coercive control is a type of domestic abuse where one partner attempts to exert an unreasonable and oppressive level of control over their partner’s life and relationships.

Should I wait for the No Fault Divorce?

On 6th April 2022, a new divorce law comes in. This new law will make it so that it will no longer be necessary to allege either unreasonable behaviour, adultery, or desertion, nor wait for 5 years of separation, or 2 years with consent in order to become divorced.
With this change comes many benefits, such as the lack of blame; the responsibility for relationship breakdown will not have to solely fall onto just one side. It is believed this will encourage a generally less hurtful and turbulent process, without finger pointing or blame games; both sides will move towards an outcome.

As opposed to having to wait either 5 years or 2 years of separation with consent for a ‘no fault’ divorce, the process will now take around 6 months, making this stressful period potentially come to an end far quicker and allowing you to move forward with your life post-divorce.

That being said, the process of a no fault divorce will take significantly longer than it potentially would with agreed allegations of adultery or unreasonable behaviour. This is because there is a 20 week window after applying, intended to give you time to consider the application and if divorce is the right step for you, your family, and your needs.

So, whilst you no longer have to wait for 5 years of separation or 2 years with consent, for a ‘no fault’ divorce, the process is still considerably longer than it might be, due to the 20 week waiting period.

Pending the change in the law, you may be asking yourself whether you should go ahead and divorce now, or wait until next April. Each person’s circumstances are unique, and you will each want to weigh up and decide what is most important to you. There may be legal and/or financial reasons why it may be best not to wait. Though, it should be noted that, even if you apply at the earliest date possible, if you are applying under the new law, your divorce will not be finalised until November 2022 at the earliest.

Whether you think that a no fault divorce may be the way forward for you or not, you do not have to make this decision alone. At Agasee Law we provide specialist family law legal advice and information to guide you each and every step of the way. We offer a free, confidential, initial consultation on a remote basis, so you have nothing to lose by getting in touch. If you would like to know more, please contact us by email at [email protected] or by telephone on 01702 932 619.

With over 20 years of experience in family law, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We understand the often complex situations people are in and tailor our approach to the individual accordingly. We put families first, always.

How has the Internet Impacted the Rate of Divorce?

A recent study conducted by Marriage Foundation has found that couples who meet online are around six times more likely to divorce during the first three years of their marriage when compared to couples who met through mutual friends and family. The study notes, in particular, the importance of mutual friends and support networks, with these connections granting “access to reliable information from which to make a good decision about a life partner”. The initial lack of these shared support networks for couples who meet online is suggested to be a key factor to this increased divorce rate. While many relationships formed online are happy and long-lasting, it can still be comforting to know that you are prepared should any issues arise.

With this in mind, and with the fact that online dating apps are now tied for the most common way for couples to meet, we must change the way that we understand relationships, separation, and divorce. At Agasee Law Associates, we tailor our approach to each client’s circumstances, understanding the ways in which modern life and technology can contribute to relationship breakdown.

We currently offer a free, confidential, initial consultation to help you to consider your options and how best you can move forward.
