Questions clients ask
How long does a divorce take in Uganda?
An uncontested divorce can take several months; a contested one may take longer. We give a realistic estimate after reading the marriage certificate and any children’s details.
Can grandparents apply for custody?
Yes, where it is in the child’s best interests. The court considers the child’s welfare, stability and relationship with the applicant.
