Our Minneapolis Divorce Services
The divorce rate in Minnesota is 10.20%. Even so, it is comparatively easier to get a divorce in Minnesota than in other states. Under Minn. Stat. § 518.06(1), if a judge determines that your marriage has experienced an “irretrievable breakdown,” the judge may issue you a divorce. You and your spouse are not required to give a cause for your divorce that is based on fault. In fact, Minnesota does not recognize fault-based grounds for divorce, unlike many other states.
Our team of qualified divorce lawyers here to help you walk through the divorce process one step at a time.
