~ Australia’s most expensive divorce wraps up after 14 years and $40 million in legal fees
Australia’s longest and messiest divorce has finally ended after 14 years, more than 700 documents and $40 million in legal fees.

The 14-year saga involved more than 700 documents, a “vast number” of hearings, 61 separate judgments, 16 law firms and more than $40 million in legal fees.
