Divorce is never easy — emotionally or legally. In North Dakota, the divorce process involves resolving a wide range of important issues, including division of marital property and debts, child custody and visitation, child support, and spousal support (alimony). Whether the divorce is contested or uncontested, the decisions made during this process will impact your financial future, your parental rights, and your personal stability.

North Dakota allows for both no-fault and fault-based divorces under specific legal grounds such as adultery, cruelty, desertion, and irreconcilable differences. The process is governed by North Dakota Century Code Title 14, and even in no-fault cases, the court must ensure that the agreement is fair and that the best interests of the children are protected.
