Family relationships are based on mutual understanding, love and respect. If one of the parties wants to divorce, sooner or later it will happen according to the law. But if one of the parties does not want to separate the family, he should know that there are ways to do this by law.

Although there are no direct ways, I bring to your attention the indirect ways:

  1. Using the articles of the Civil Procedure Code, with the possibilities provided by the Legislation, to extend the trial to a longer time;

  2. The law does not give men the right to divorce pregnant women. Divorce will not take place during pregnancy and until the newborn child is 1 year old;

  3. You can talk to each other, discuss problems and take steps to solve your problems;

  4. You can use the help of a mediator, psychologist or other third parties;

  5. There are other ways, I can talk about them during the consultation.

According to Article 15 of the Family Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan, during the wife's pregnancy or within 1 year after the birth of the child, the husband cannot file a claim for termination of marriage without the wife's consent.

According to Article 20.2 of the Family Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan, if one of the Parties does not agree on the dissolution of the marriage, the court can postpone the case by setting a period of 3 months for the couple to reconcile. At this time, the court process can last up to 6-7 months. It is even possible to extend the divorce process up to 1 year by applying to higher instance courts.

All these procrastination tricks buy you time to reconcile. If the other party insists on divorce, sooner or later there will be a divorce.

Try not to let things get to this point. Pay attention to your family, your partner, show your love to him (her).
