  2. What Are the Grounds for Divorce? Divorce is basically the legal procedure of termination of a matrimonial relationship or marriage. Divorce generally involves the reorganizing or cancelling of a married couple's legal obligations and liabilities under the law of that state or country, thereby dissolving the legal bonds of marriage under the stipulated law. In some states, divorce is also referred to as dissolution of marriage. In the United States, divorce law is governed by a system of limited divorce remedies, under which a divorce decree may be granted to one party only, while the other party is granted only the divorce mandamus, stay or motion.

  3. Under the common law, there were no divorce remedies at all, but there have been many changes in that area of law over the years, including the common divorce remedy of affidavits. An affidavit generally declared that the spouses are not in a state of matrimonial bliss and that the union is irretrievably broken. The spouse filing the affidavit must produce the marriage certificate of the other spouse, unless it can be proved that the marriage was legally dissolved in some other way, such as through a court order under some other statutes that govern marriage. In this case, that party filing the affidavit is not required to produce any marriage certificate.

  4. Another form of divorce remedy called for a showing of an imbalance of their communal property. A typical example was where one spouse had a large estate, while the other had very little, or no estate at all. Under some jurisdictions, this is still a common divorce argument today. Under the common law, the court ordered a partition of the communal property in favor of each party, based on what was known as the equity of community property.

  5. In other states, however, there are no divorce proceedings required if the divorcing parties are living in a common-law marriage. Instead, the spouse must file a legal separation agreement or an uncontested divorce decree. Again, if proof is required to support the court's equitable distribution decision, that party is exempt from having to provide a certificate of corroborating evidence. Again, the divorce decree is generally quite dissimilar from the marital settlement agreement, because it doesn't involve any conjugal property issues. The divorce forms may include various instructions as to what the division of property and child custody will be.

  6. In more recent years, the concept of a "justifiable divorce" has become more common. A divorce is considered "justifiable" when one of the spouses is unable to obtain the services of an attorney to protect his or her interests after separation. Usually, this involves a party not having access to a computer or the means to make an online home-based business. A spouse with financial or personal resources may be able to have an attorney to file for a divorce, but not always.

  7. One of the advantages to hiring an attorney to file for divorce is that the attorney will make sure that all of the proper filings are made, and that all of the creditors and their proofs of claim are submitted to the court. It is also often the case that an attorney can obtain other financial records, such as tax returns, to substantiate a claim for marital assets. In some cases, the filing party may choose to hire a mediator to assist in the divorce proceedings. Whatever the case, hiring an attorney is the best way to ensure that the divorce is processed in the manner prescribed by law.
