What are a Divorce Summons and Particulars of Claim?
The summons is a formal document used to start divorce proceedings. The particulars of claim set out the relevant facts and what you ask the court to order. This product helps you prepare both documents from your answers, in editable Word format.
Do we need a signed Divorce Settlement Agreement first?
Yes. This product follows an agreed DIY divorce route, and the questionnaire requires confirmation that you and your spouse have agreed to and signed a Divorce Settlement Agreement. If you still need to prepare one, you can create a Divorce Settlement Agreement with iLawyer first.
What does an unopposed or uncontested divorce mean here?
For this product, it means you and your spouse have agreed on the divorce terms and signed a settlement agreement. It is not designed to prepare a contested divorce case. If terms remain disputed, resolve them or obtain advice on the appropriate procedure before purchasing.
What should I have ready before I begin?
Have your signed settlement agreement, marriage details and the parties’ details ready. Follow the questions to build your documents, and check any court-specific details before they are used.
What happens after payment?
You receive your editable summons, particulars of claim and DIY guide. Review the documents, complete any outstanding details and use the guide to help you prepare for the remaining steps.
Does the purchase include court filing and service?
Your purchase prepares the documents and includes DIY guidance. Filing, service and the court proceedings are separate steps you arrange yourself or through an attorney. Buying these documents does not itself complete a divorce.
Can I use these documents with an attorney?
Yes. You can ask an attorney to review the documents or assist with the court process if you prefer support beyond the DIY guide. Advice and representation are separate services and are not included in the R549 document price.
How do I get the documents ready for court?
Use the editable Word files to check your details and complete any information still needed. Follow the guide and confirm the relevant court’s current requirements before filing. Acceptance depends on the completed documents and the requirements for your matter; it is not guaranteed simply by purchasing the product.
Can I pay in instalments?
Pay through PayFast after completing your questionnaire. The payment page shows the methods available for your purchase. If an instalment option is offered, check the provider’s eligibility criteria and terms before selecting it.
