Unilateral Divorce 12/04/2025
Adultery is considered a serious violation of marital duties and can be used as legal grounds for divorce. Evidence such as messages, photos, witness statements, or hotel receipts can support your case. The unilateral divorce process includes filing a petition at the People Court, attending court led reconciliation and going through trial proceedings where the court will decide on child custody, property division and spousal support. Reviewing the relevant records before taking action helps identify the evidence still needed and the questions that require individual legal advice.

It outlines legal grounds such as domestic violence, infidelity, and long-term separation, along with the evidence required and steps to file.
