Fault vs. no-fault divorce in Virginia
Curious about the grounds for filing divorce in Virginia? You're dealing with a fault-based divorce if:
- Your spouse cheats on you
- Your spouse is convicted of a felony
- Your spouse is guilty of cruelty, desertion or abandonment
Virginia allows fault divorces, and proving that your spouse is at fault can affect the outcome of your asset distribution. Alternatively, a no-fault divorce is not based on either party's conduct, and you must agree to live separately for 12 months to move forward with the divorce.
Contact O'Brien Law today to retain a knowledgeable fault-based divorce attorney. We'll help you navigate divorce law in Virginia.
