I am from the U.K., and a member of the Church of England. I married a Jewish Israeli guy, in my local church in the U.K. We came to live in Israel. I want a divorce,but he doesn't. What divorce law is involved if I manage divorce proceedings here in Israel?

U.K. divorce law. Although you can file for the dissolution of your marriage at the family court here in Israel, if he contests it, you will have to prove that you have grounds for divorce according to U.K. divorce law. You will have to present a written opinion of an expert on U.K. divorce law and that person may be need to appear in court to face cross examination, and give testimony.
