Judicial Separation/Divorce DIY

    Hi, I a hoping to receive some guidance regards a particular matter.

    I was married to a foreign national, married in their country. We separated shortly upon are return to Ireland (looks like scam marriage but I can assure no financial gain).

    We were supposed to attend court to agree on a judicial separation, with a divorce hopefully shortly after.

    Now, for reasons (personal) the other party did not want to go ahead at last minute. Now they finally agree to do it in court.

    I now want to proceed with the judicial separation as it has been sometime since the org application.

    Is it possible for me to apply to the court directly for the judicial separation? I engaged the services of a solicitor/barrister at the time but I would like to try lodge paperwork myself.?

    Sorry if the post doesn't make things clear, please ask if further information is needed.

    Thank you in advance,

    Please don't judge, I was naive and regret my actions now. Purely looking for guidance in this matter.

    To reply to your question, you are entitled to bring your own proceedings and there is no requirement that you engage a solicitor, where you act on your own behalf.

    However, these threads tend to turn into requests for legal advice and/or requests for precedents, which are not allowed.

    See courts.ie also:

    You may want to check out the Separation and Divorce forum.

    This thread must be closed because of the forum charter, which does not allow legal advice.
