North Carolina Grounds for Divorce

On Behalf of | Sep 10, 2011 | Divorce, Family Law

Depending on what state you call home, you may have to prove certain circumstances
in order to successfully obtain a
divorce.

In the state of North Carolina, for example, there are different grounds
under which you can file for divorce and some grounds are easier to prove
then others.

If you can prove that you have been living apart from your spouse for a
period of one year, divorce can be obtained somewhat easily. However,
there are cases where proving legitimate grounds for divorce can be harder.
For example, in cases where one spouse has to prove that the other spouse
is insane or has mental conditions, getting a divorce may be a little trickier.

Aside from living apart and insanity, there are other grounds for divorce
that are recognized by a number of states, not just North Carolina. These
grounds include a spouse abandoning his/her family, excessive use of alcohol,
infidelity, and endangering the life of the spouse or family members.

If you are hoping to move forward with divorce in North Carolina, you’ll
want to become familiar with the state’s divorce laws. In order to
do this, it is advised that you
