What does a divorce cost?

--:--
Ever wondered about the real cost of divorce? If so, you’ve arrived at the right place.

Carol Ofori sat down with attorney Benita Ardenbaum, who is the Founder and Director of an all-woman legal firm in Durban, South Africa, Benita Ardenbaum Family Law Attorneys. Benita is a senior attorney with over 27 years’ experience in Family Law, Divorce Law and Personal Law.

In an engaging conversation, Benita speaks to Carol Ofori about not only the real cost of divorce, but also, in her experience, the main reasons once happily married couples find themselves detesting the sight of each other.

Benita also speaks about her experiences as a Family Law Attorney and puts to bed the misconceptions around ‘common law marriages’ in South Africa.

If you’re in a relationship with the aim of getting married, already married to the love of your life, or even single and looking, this is an important podcast.
