There are quite a few separate processes and laws surrounding divorces that courts take into consideration before granting this request. Each state has no fault divorce laws, and fault divorce laws that are different and are used in deciding the outcome of issues such as separating assets, and granting child custody rights.
However, before you jump to the conclusion of filing a Divorce, more than likely if you pursue the Divorce on your own, the court would advise you to go to Divorce Counseling in an attempt to resolve your issues with your spouse. However, if adultery, abuse, or other serious matters are into play, you can hire a Lawyer to defend and advocate the Divorce. If you are able to have your spouse agree to the Divorce for a reason such as; you simply don’t love her anymore and it’s not working out, then you can hire a paralegal which basically ensures the correct paperwork is filed for the Divorce, but does not provide legal guidance and advice on matters such as child custody or the division of assets.
