Will the division of property and potential spousal support be affected by whether or not I obtain a fault or no-fault divorce?
That depends on the state. In some states the court can consider the spouses' faults in deciding how to distribute property and provide spousal support. In a no fault divorce situation, the actions of the respective spouses in the breakdown of the marriage do not affect property distribution or spousal support rights. Again, an attorney is vital to represent your best interests in the division of property in the dissolution of a marriage.
