FAQ

For a divorce in Massachusetts, a Separation Agreement needs to be signed, notarized, and then filed with the proper Probate and Family Court Department in conjunction with other divorce documents. A Probate and Family Court judge will then review the Separation Agreement and may take various actions.

The grounds for divorce in Massachusetts include both fault-based reasons (claims about a spouse's misconduct) and one no-fault reason: "irretrievable breakdown of the marriage." To get an uncontested divorce, you and your spouse must agree that your marriage is broken and can't be fixed.

Massachusetts does not have legal separation. You do not need court permission to live away from your spouse. Separation agreements often occur before a divorce to set out terms for child custody, the division of debts and property, and what to do with the family home.

By law, there are two types of divorce in Massachusetts: contested and uncontested. These two types of divorce are handled very differently. You do not need to litigate an uncontested divorce in court, but you will still need to attend an uncontested divorce hearing.

Step 2: Write a separation agreement You'll need to write a separation agreement, and both spouses must sign it and have it notarized (signed by a notary). A separation agreement is a written contract between you and your spouse.
