How to start a divorce

Grounds for Divorce

In Minnesota, only no-fault divorce is recognized. The only valid ground for divorce is "Irretrievable breakdown of the marriage." There is no need for either party to prove the other spouse's misconduct before the court or to defend themselves.

In Minnesota, the only required evidence of an Irretrievable breakdown of the marriage is the fact that the parties have lived separately for at least 180 days or a severe conflict is recognized by both spouses and there is no hope for reconciliation.

Customer Testimonials

Kathryn K.

Hennepin

My spouse and I have not lived in the same house for many years. Attempts to really "talk" about our relationship fell flat, so it was finally time to give up. The Online MN Divorce Assistance Service is a dream come true! Prices are great, way below a lawyer. Reaching the end of the request case was very easy, very complete. We did not have minor children or property to argue over, so things were very easy. Staff very helpful and easy to connect with. Very Fast too.
