Deciding to pursue a divorce is one
of the most difficult and emotional decisions you will ever make,
particularly if you have children. Divorce also involves business
and legal questions that must be resolved. An experienced family
law attorney will help you to understand the basic issues and use a
rational perspective to approach the process.
Grounds for Divorce
Traditionally, every state required a person filing
for divorce to prove "grounds" or some type of spousal fault in
order to obtain a divorce. Today, the majority of states allow at
least one form of "no-fault" divorce, which does not require proof
of fault. If no-fault divorce is available in your state, either
member of the couple may obtain a divorce, even if the other party
does not consent to the divorce.
