Frequently Asked Questions

Most places allow for “no-fault” divorce based on irreconcilable differences. Some jurisdictions also recognize fault-based grounds like adultery or cruelty.

The length of the process varies depending on the complexity of the case and whether it’s contested or uncontested.

Property is usually divided based on the principle of equitable distribution, which may not always be an equal split but aims to be fair.

In an uncontested divorce, both parties agree on key issues like property division and custody. Contested divorces involve disputes that require court intervention.
