You can apply for divorce once you have been separated for 12 months. But you don't need to wait that long to sort out parenting arrangements or divide property.
There's no fixed formula for dividing property after separation. Instead, the law aims for a division of assets, debts and superannuation that's just and equitable — or in plain terms, fair.
If you've recently separated, working out where your children live and how they spend time with each parent is one of the most important - and often most sensitive - issues to resolve.
