When facing the complexities of divorce, having a skilled and compassionate legal team by your side can make all the difference.

With over 25 years of experience, we are here to guide Avon residents through Indiana’s divorce laws with care and precision.

Understanding the Indiana Divorce Process

Indiana operates as a “no-fault” divorce state, meaning that you don’t need to prove your spouse was at fault to file for divorce. Instead, most cases simply cite an “irretrievable breakdown of the marriage.” Here’s an outline of the process:

Filing the Petition

The divorce process in Indiana starts when one spouse files a petition for the dissolution of marriage with the appropriate court. At least one party must have lived in Indiana for six months, with three months’ residency in the county where the petition is filed.

Serving the Other Party

After filing, the petition must be formally served to the other spouse to ensure they are properly notified of the proceedings.They will then have the opportunity to respond.

Temporary Orders

During the waiting period (at least 60 days in Indiana), the court may issue temporary orders to address pressing issues. These could include child custody, child support, spousal support, or use of shared property.

Division of Assets

Indiana law requires equitable distribution of marital property. This doesn’t imply an equal 50/50 split but rather a fair distribution, taking into account factors such as income, contributions to the marriage, and potential future earning capacity.

Child Custody and Support

When children are involved, custody arrangements are made based on the “best interests of the child.” The court considers factors like the emotional bond with each parent, living arrangements, and the child’s well-being. Indiana employs a standardized formula to determine child support payments.

Finalizing the Divorce

After reviewing all terms, the court will issue a final divorce decree, officially dissolving the marriage.

Common Challenges in Divorce

Divorce often involves emotional strain, financial uncertainty, and sometimes contentious disputes. Key challenges may include disagreements over asset division, custody battles, or disputes about spousal support. Without proper representation, these issues can escalate, leaving one or both parties at a disadvantage.
