Divorce in Massachusetts Massachusetts

There are two basic types of divorce law: fault and not fault. The states that use a no fault system do not make it a requirement that there be a clear reason for the divorce. It is often enough to state that the couple has irreconcilable differences.

Other states use a more traditional "fault" system where the spouse seeking the divorce must show a reason why the divorce should be granted. This often means showing adultery or abuse.

Barnstable Divorce lawyers are aware of the relevant laws in Massachusetts.
