How to get a divorce lawyer in Nigeria

Divorce is the legal separation of a married couple. It happens when the couple is convinced that the marriage is no longer sustainable. For a divorce to be granted, it must meet the conditions that have been stated in section 15 of the Matrimonial Causes Act.

In most cases, the couple who are involved in divorce likes to keep the matter private. This is because a lot of private and personal information is sometimes stated in the divorce petitions that could be embarrassing to the couples involved in the divorce process.

A divorce lawyer must be a person who has empathy and can understand the plight of the client. The client must also feel very comfortable with the lawyer. This helps when discussing personal information with the client.

Lastly, lawyers must be very honest with their clients. Clients sometimes ask for relief that is not possible. It is in our place to keep their expectations grounded in reality.
