Grounds for a Divorce

Arizona is a "no-fault" state, meaning it is unnecessary to prove that your spouse committed adultery, abandonment, or other similar acts to obtain a divorce. Most commonly, divorces take place when spouses have developed "irreconcilable differences." This is an accepted legal phrase that essentially means you and your spouse are not getting along and that your marriage is beyond repair. Even if your spouse does not want a divorce, you can still request one. The process cannot be stopped just because one party is unwilling to comply.

Uncontested Divorce vs. Contested Divorce

Divorce can be broken down into two categories:

Uncontested divorce: This occurs when both spouses agree to getting divorced and about all the terms of the divorce, such as child support, alimony, debt allocation, asset division, and more. This process is typically less drawn out and, therefore, less of a financial burden than a contested divorce.
Contested divorce: This occurs when one or both spouses cannot agree to get divorced on the terms regarding the divorce. Typically, this process must go to court, where a judge will determine the terms of the divorce, since the couple cannot come to an agreement.

In some cases, couples may begin a contested divorce only to reach a settlement on the important terms of the divorce before the case goes to trial. This settlement must begin legally binding and can be reached with the help of our skilled divorce lawyer in Phoenix.
