What Are The Grounds For Divorce In Indiana?
Indiana is a mixed state, which means that you can use either fault or no-fault grounds as the basis for seeking a divorce, or you can base your divorce on the fact that you’ve been separated from your spouse for at least two years. The reason you might want to use fault grounds is to gain an advantage in a contested child custody case or a dispute about the division of marital property or the appropriateness or amount of alimony. To learn more about whether Indiana uses fault as a determining factor in alimony and property issues, see Nolo’s Essential Guide to Divorce, by Emily Doskow.
