MORE ABOUT ME

WHAT TO KNOW WHEN FILING FOR DIVORCE

Whether your divorce is contested or uncontested, the process can be extremely stressful, emotional, and difficult.

LEARN MORE

California is a "no-fault" divorce state, which means that the spouse filing for a legal separation or divorce does not have to prove that the other spouse did something wrong to warrant the dissolution of the marriage.

This sets two grounds for divorce in the state, being irreconcilable differences or incurable insanity. Irreconcilable differences, which have caused the irredeemable breakdown of the marriage, are typically the default reasons behind filing a petition for divorce in California.
