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.

A "fault" based state on the other hand requires a reason for divorce such as adultery or abuse.

You will want to make sure that your Cambridge Divorce lawyer is familiar with the laws that apply in Massachusetts.
