Grounds For Divorce - Step One

A divorce can be a stressful event, it can be a time of heartache and in some cases

a time of conflict or aggression, whatever the outcome, there is usually one party that is happier than the other. If a divorce is the final resort, then you will undoubtedly have a few questions to ask regarding the divorce process, grounds for divorce and how to manage the legal practicalities concerned.

If you and your partner have come to the conclusion that the relationship is over, then now is the time to seek legal advice. Seeking legal advice at an early stage is a vital step in developing an understanding of how the legal process works, what you are required to do to in order to obtain a divorce and also so that you can minimise the stress that both parties will feel if the legal process becomes prolonged one. Additionally, the sooner you both appreciate the legal procedure the quicker you will both be able to start to prepare for your futures apart.

At this stage it's important to define the reason you are splitting and to select a Family Law Specialist. You may end up visiting more than one solicitor before you make your selection so it's important that you pick one that offers an initial free consultation, explaining about the processes involved and one that has experience in the field. You are then free to make an informed decision without commitment or cost.

Determining Grounds for divorce;

In England and Wales there are officially five specific grounds for filing for divorce, with the majority brought because of the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage through 'unreasonable behaviour' by either party.

In order to obtain a divorce, you are required by law to prove on of the following:

*That your partner has committed adultery. *Unreasonable behaviour. *That your partner has deserted, for at least two years. *That you have been separated for two years and both parties want the divorce. *That you have lived apart for five years, in this case consent from the 'other' party is not required.
