A divorce itself is often the simplest part. The real work is everything decided alongside it, property, support and the children.
In Canada there is really one ground for divorce: breakdown of the marriage. It is almost always shown by living separate and apart for one year. Adultery and cruelty are the other routes, but they are harder to prove and rarely necessary.
Spouses who agree can apply for a simple or joint divorce, a largely paperwork process. Where there is disagreement about property, support or parenting, those issues, the corollary relief, are what take time and care, not the divorce order itself.
Where a marriage, assets or a spouse sit in another country, questions of jurisdiction, recognition of a foreign divorce, and enforcement across borders arise. These are precisely the situations where early, informed advice saves the most.

Book a Consultation离婚本身，往往是最简单的部分。真正的工作，是与之一并解决的那些事：财产、抚养，以及孩子。
在加拿大，离婚其实只有一个理由：婚姻破裂。它几乎总是以“分居满一年”来证明。通奸与虐待是另两条路径，但举证更难，也很少必要。
达成一致的配偶可以申请简易或共同离婚，基本是文书流程。而对财产、抚养或育儿存在分歧时，这些问题（即“附带救济, corollary relief”）才是真正耗时、需要用心的部分，离婚令本身反而不是。
当婚姻、资产或配偶身处另一个国家时，就会出现管辖权、境外离婚的承认、以及跨境执行等问题。这些恰恰是尽早获得专业意见最能省事省钱的情形。
