What to Expect

In Missouri, divorce is formally called "dissolution of marriage." Missouri is a no-fault state: you only need to show that the marriage is irretrievably broken. At least one spouse must have lived in Missouri for 90 days before filing, and the court cannot finalize a divorce until at least 30 days after the petition is filed. Most cases take longer, depending on how much the spouses agree. We will explain the timeline for your situation and prepare you for each decision along the way.
