District of Columbia Divorce: Find lawyers and law firms by city or county

The term divorce refers to the dissolution or the legal end of a marriage. Each state has its own requirements governing when a divorce may be granted, including a residency requirement and grounds or a reason for the divorce. There are both fault-based and no-fault based grounds for divorce. These, too, vary from state to state; although "irreconcilable differences" and "irretrievable breakdown" are common no-fault grounds for divorce. The 50 states also vary with respect to the division of the marital property, alimony, child custody and visitation, and child support.
