What is a no-fault divorce
No-fault divorce is a term meaning that the court does not get involved in the reasons for the divorce. According to older law and regulations, the party who started the divorce process had to prove reasons for getting the divorce, such as adultery or abuse. This required difficult, often embarrassing, questions about the couple’s private lives. No-fault divorce laws changed this drastically. Now the divorce law in most states allow one of the parties to get a divorce if he or she states in court that the marriage is irretrievably broken.
