No-fault uncontested divorces

In
Virginia,
the grounds for a no-fault divorce are called "living separate and
apart." In order to satisfy the necessary elements to obtain a no-fault
divorce, the parties must have lived separate and apart without cohabitation or
interruption for a period of 12 months or more. If the husband and wife have no
minor children born of or adopted by the marriage and have a signed separation
agreement, a no-fault divorce may be obtained after a separation period of 6
months.
No-fault
divorces can be performed on a flat fee basis and can be concluded in a
short turnaround if the parties can agree.
