No-Fault Divorce in California

Deciding to end a marriage is one of the hardest decisions a person can face. Navigating the legal system can be challenging, even for those with extensive legal knowledge, and dealing with a divorce is a tough situation for anyone. While divorce is never simple, it can be made more manageable with the support of a compassionate divorce attorney from Conway Law Trial Attorneys, who can guide you through every step and protect your interests.

Let’s be honest: divorce isn’t for happy couples, and most start the process feeling hurt and betrayed. However, since California is a no-fault divorce state, a spouse can file for divorce anytime, citing “irreconcilable differences” as per Cal Fam. Code 2311. In California, property division in divorce cases isn’t influenced by either spouse’s actions, though child custody and visitation rights can be. This ensures a fair division of assets and prioritizes the well-being of any children involved. Understanding these laws can help ease some of the stress during this challenging time. Contact our Family Law Attorney for expert guidance.

I have a big heart and I care about people. I take a personal approach that shows my client’s that I am, and will be, there for them throughout their case.

California Divorce Laws

Under Cal. Fam. Code 2335, evidence of wrongdoing or misconduct by either partner during the marriage is irrelevant and inadmissible in divorce proceedings. This ensures a focus on resolving practical issues rather than assigning blame.

Per California Family Code 2320, to obtain a divorce judgment in California, one spouse must have lived in the state for six months. Typically, the spouse filing for divorce must file in their county of residence, having lived there for at least three months before filing. If these conditions aren’t met, the family court might dismiss the case. This residency requirement helps maintain jurisdictional clarity and ensures the court’s decisions are based on consistent and fair guidelines. Understanding these legal nuances can help couples navigate the process more smoothly.

Divorce Attorney Serving Clients in Santa Rosa, CA

After filing a divorce petition, California law mandates a minimum wait of six months from the day the other spouse is served with the documents before finalizing the divorce. If a spouse doesn’t meet the residency requirements, they can apply for legal separation first and later amend the petition to request a divorce.

The Difference Between Divorce And Legal Separation

If you’re uncertain whether divorce is the right choice, you might consider legal separation as an alternative. In California, legal separation allows couples to live apart while remaining legally married, offering many of the same benefits as divorce without completely ending the marriage. This can be ideal for couples hoping to reconcile or wishing to retain benefits like family insurance policies. After a legal separation, you and your spouse remain legally married but cannot live together and may be eligible for child support and spousal maintenance.

Divorce might ultimately be the best option for you and your spouse, potentially making the process smoother if pursued later.

High-value properties, contested terms, child custody, and spousal support can all complicate a divorce. Hiring a Santa Rosa divorce attorney from Conway Law Trial Attorneys is the ideal way to manage these issues. While you focus on your future, your lawyer will negotiate your divorce settlement with your spouse and their legal team. Instead of dealing with paperwork or court appearances, you should go to work or spend time with your family. Rely on your lawyer to work on your behalf to achieve a fair and effective resolution.

While a lawyer can be beneficial in most divorce cases, if your divorce is straightforward and uncontested, you may not require one. If you and your spouse can amicably resolve key issues and draft an agreement that a judge can approve, legal representation may not be necessary. However, if you anticipate challenges in reaching a fair divorce settlement, such as disagreements over terms, hiring a lawyer is advisable. Additionally, if your spouse has already retained legal counsel, it’s a clear indicator that you should consider doing the same.
