Divorce

Divorce is the legal process you follow to end your marriage.

If you have decided to end your marriage, you may choose to file for divorce. You can file for divorce in Massachusetts if you have lived in the state for one year, or if the reason the marriage ended happened in Massachusetts and you have lived in Massachusetts as a couple. You can find information here on how to file for a divorce, what the types of divorce are, how to get a copy of your divorce record, and more.
