Hi My divorce has been finalized. Your services were excellent. The step by step procedure helped so much. The only error was you directed me to Cape Town but I had to go to Wynberg. Other than that it was great. Kind regards Lea

Frequently Asked Questions

I am married out of community of property and my wife is claiming maintenance. We have no children together, no assets or liabilities, and she has always worked, and I have never paid maintenance to her. I live in Mozambique, and do not have a South African bank account, but her attorneys are demanding information regarding my status in Mozambique, including a list of my assets, etc. Please advise what your charge would be to attend to this matter. We were previously with another attorney, but they withdrew from this case with no prior notice, and we believe that there is a court ruling to pay maintenance, which we were not aware of until this month.
Ian, This is not a matter that DIY Law can assist with, you require the assistance of an attorney. Riaan Scheepers from Cawood Attorneys will send you a direct email. Regards,

Good evening I would like to have some help to get divorce just to say that I do have 2minors one 11 and the other 14 I understand the fees upfront are almost900 and the 150 for the Sherrif to deliver plse if any assistance is available.
Christine, Indeed the R890 is payable, where after you will immediately receive login details to proceed with the online divorce application. I will provide you with more information per email. Regards,
Hi, By using this service am I still required to go to court ?
You will have to attend Court. The good news is that you receive a step by step guide to ensure that all is ready for your Court appearance and it is not something that you should be concerned about.
Hi If i make of your services and there are no contesting or policies or children or any assets involved and both parties agree to set out documents. How long will the divorce take to go through.
Because you handle the divorce yourself, it will depend on the time you take to follow the step by step guide that will be provided to you. It also depends on where the court dates of your local court is. It shouldn't however take more than 2-3 months to finalise. It can be much sooner though.
Good day Please can you provide me with a telephone no as i got some questions i need clarification on. Kind regards
Sharon, I will send a email to you with the relevant information. Regards,
My girlfriend wants to divorce but she doesn't have any stable job yet is it possible to get get her some help so the divorce can be done faste she is willing to pay but dont have the money all at once.
Ruan, We will be able to assist your girlfriend with her divorce. Unfortunately the DIY Law program is set up in such a way that the payment of R890 must be made at once to proceed with the online divorce application. There is not an option to pay in installments at this point in time. Regards,

Firstly, i want to thank Riaan and team for a super great service, i am happily divorced. I just want find out, now that we are divorced and my ex-husband was paying maitenance to his other kids, looks like he stopped and now the mother of the other child wants to summon me for maintenance. What are my legal rights?
-- Nokhaya
Nokhaya, Thank you for your comment, it is highly appreciated. The answer to your question is quite uncomplicated. You have no maintenance obligation to another woman's child, even if that child is with your husband, not even to mention if you are divorced from him. The mother of the child has no claim against you and her threats to do so is opportunistic to say the least. Regards
-- diylaw Administrator
we are married in community what advice do you have for me?
-- Helena Snyman
@Helena, That ia an extremely loaded question which we will gladly answer with more information from you. In essence it will boil down to a 50/50 division of the joint estate, unless the parties agree otherwise. Regards,

Steph, Thank you for your comment. If you are already divorced DIY LAw will not be able to assist you. It seems however as if you have certain post-divorce issues, kindly contact Riaan Scheepers @ Cawood Attorneys for assistance in the matter. Regards

Just did the test and although we are in agreement to get divorced our diy was declined any specific reason
-- Gill
That is strange. I will contact you directly to ascertain how you completed the test and what the problem may be. Regards

Dear Riaan, Thank you for your prompt response. I sent an email to info@diylaw.co.za. I do not wish to post my email address here on a public forum. Is there an alternative email address to which I can also send?
-- Nancy
You may send it to riaan@cawoodlaw.co.za.

-- Angela Fortune
Angela, Thank you for your comment. It does not seem as if your divorce will be uncontested, and as such you will not qualify for a DIY Law Online Divorce. You are welcome to contact Riaan Scheepers @ Cawood Attorneys for assistance in the matter. Regards
-- diylaw Administrator
We are married in community of property. We don't have minor children. We have agreed that my husband wont have any claim to our house or my provident fund. I will pay his medical aid for 3 years. Will this service work for me?
-- Reinette
Hi Reinette, You will still be able to do the divorce via DIY Law. We will just have to work on the content of the settlement agreement to conform to your specific needs. Regards
-- diylaw Administrator
