It is a sad sign of the times when divorce has become a simple fact of life, as opposed to a surprising and irregular occurrence within society; if we have not had first-hand contact with divorce through family relations, we will certainly have a best friend that has been through one or watched their parents file for separation.
Although the reasons behind the split can vary wildly, usually the process of divorce fairly straight-forward; however, there are always going to be anomalies, the cases that bag the headline for being utterly ludicrous in their out comings.
A Leeds
divorce lawyer may be able to help you, if you require legal advice on an extraordinary divorce case.
A recent example of an extraordinary divorce case from across the pond, is the U.S. man who is not only divorcing his wife, but demanding that she return the kidney that he donated to her while they were married. After a long and drawn out process left him feeling as if he was not getting anywhere with his estranged wife, Dr Richard Batista decided to go public with his divorce hearings.
He claimed that he had been denied access to his three children and was deeply ashamed and embarrassed about the entire affair, "There is no deeper pain that you can ever express than betrayal from somebody who you love and devoted your life to." Dr Batista is demanding the value of the kidney that he donated to his wife back from her in a landmark case in divorce law and asset dividing.
According to BBC news, a lawyer for Mrs Batista stated that, 'The facts aren't as represented by Dr Batista. We will be addressing the issues before the judge within the next few days,' and that a donated organ is not a marital asset to be divided.
Now, the cases in Leeds may not end up being quite so extraordinary to that of the Batistas' divorce proceedings, however, you may have a strange and peculiar element to your divorce proceedings that you may not think will be taken as seriously by a divorce lawyer than other, more regular cases would be.
A competent and serious divorce lawyer will review any divorce claim that is presented to them, and will assess whether your case has legs, i.e. is strong enough to be taken on only on merit, not on how peculiar the situation may be.
The very nature of an 'extraordinary' divorce case means that there is no way that anyone can predict what the details could be; however, whatever it may be, you should always seek out top notch legal advice available for your representation on your divorce proceedings. To learn from a case as strange as the Batistas,' you may end up demanding more than your heart back from your loved one...!
