What Should I Know About Arizona Family and Divorce Laws?

Each state has its own requirements for obtaining a divorce, so it’s important to have an understanding of the specific Arizona laws and statutes that will affect your situation. Our experienced family law attorneys will work with you to help you make sense of the various laws that apply to you and your family, but it also helps to familiarize yourself with some of the basics. Some of the most important divorce provisions set up by Arizona state law include:

One party must be an Arizona resident and have maintained residency for 90 days prior to filing for divorce.
There is a 60 day waiting period for a divorce, even if both parties agree to all of the terms
If either spouse denies that the marriage is irretrievably broken, the court can order a conciliation conference which will put the case on hold while the parties are sent to mediation to see if their marriage can be saved.
Arizona is a “no-fault” state, meaning that neither party needs to prove that the other one engaged in some type of wrongful behavior in order to get divorced
Arizona is a “community property” state. Most assets/income and debts which were earned or incurred during the marriage will be split equitably. This does not always mean 50-50.
Mothers and Fathers have equal rights. The Courts cannot make decisions based on the gender of the parents or the children.

At the end of the day, many of these decisions can be complex and fraught with complications without an experienced family law attorney on your side to provide you with appropriate counsel and informed representation. If you or someone you know is going through a difficult family law matter, call the attorneys at Law Offices of Vescio & Seifert, P.C. today and find out how we can help you reach an amicable resolution or advocate for you in Court.
