Understanding Maine's Divorce Laws
Each state has its own laws that govern divorce, including rules on filing for a "no-fault" or "at-fault" divorce; Maine's law allow for either type of divorce. "No-fault" divorces can be filed if it can be proven that the marriage has collapsed to the point that reconciliation is no longer an option, with neither spouse blaming the other for the breakdown.
In contrast, "at-fault" divorces are filed when one spouse blames the other for the end of the marriage.
Some reasons for pursuing this type of divorce may include:
- Abuse
- Adultery
- Extreme cruelty
- Impotence
- Neglect for three consecutive years
- Drug addiction or alcoholism
- Mental or physical incapacitation
Our firm believes in preserving family and ensuring that you are well protected in the case of an "at-fault" divorce. Even uncontested divorces can put a serious amount of stress and strain on you and your children. It can also be difficult to determine how to appropriately separate your assets, finances, and other items. The good news is that you don't have to go through this time on your own; our Bath divorce lawyers are standing by to provide assistance.
