Going through a divorce can be one of the most challenging moments in your life. Having an experienced divorce lawyer on your side to help you sort out the many issues that can arise throughout a divorce will alleviate some of the stress involved and make the entire process easier.

Virginia divorce law

Each state has its own unique divorce laws. In Virginia, you must adhere to a residency requirement before filing a divorce. The law states that you must have lived in Virginia for at least six months prior to filing a divorce. If you meet the residency requirements, you must then declare the appropriate reasons for the divorce.

In Virginia, you can file for either a no-fault or at-fault divorce.

No-fault divorce

A divorce on no-fault grounds can be filed—

  • After you have lived apart from your spouse without any interruption for at least one year
  • If you and your spouse do not have children who are minors, after you have been separated without interruption for a period of six months

Fault grounds for divorce 

To file for a divorce under fault grounds one party must be guilty of the following:

  • Adultery, sodomy, or buggery
  • Conviction of a felony or incarceration
  • Willful desertion or abandonment
  • Cruelty and reasonable apprehension of bodily harm
