What You Should Know

Grounds for Divorce:

IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES

The parties have experienced irreconcilable differences that have caused a breakdown of the marriage for a period of six months or more.

ADULTERY

Under the law, circumstantial evidence is enough. The spouse filing for divorce must only show proof of the inclination, opportunity and ability to commit adultery. Actual adulterous conduct does not need to be shown.

MARITAL SEPARATION

Sometimes called “no fault divorce,” marital separation can be used as grounds for divorce when the spouses have lived apart for at least 18 months before filing.

OTHER

There are other grounds for divorce, too. These include extreme cruelty, desertion, habitual drunkenness or drug use, imprisonment, institutionalization or deviant sexual behavior. If you are not sure which grounds for divorce applies in your situation, the best way to gain insight is to talk with your attorney.

Real Reviews

From Real Clients

We will seek the swiftest remedy possible, but will always be prepared for trial—even if our goal is never to take you there. While preparing a case for court, we always talk to clients about settling their cases and might suggest utilizing alternative dispute resolution methods like mediation and arbitration. Often, we find that such settlement options provide swifter, more amicable resolutions. At the same time, we are always “battle ready,” thoroughly preparing each case for trial. We find that we often achieve the best results when the other side knows we will not hesitate to go to court when necessary.
