Two paths to divorce in Mississippi:
Irreconcilable differences — If you have decided to part ways and agree on all issues of property, financial support and child custody, you can be divorced after a 60-day waiting period. Even in uncontested divorces, legal counsel is crucial to fully protect your interests — don’t sacrifice your future in your haste to get divorced!
Fault-based (contested) divorce — Either spouse can file on grounds such as adultery, alcohol or drug addiction, desertion, or cruel and inhuman treatment. These proceedings can get nasty and costly, and in our experience, dwelling on past behavior clouds the important legal and financial issues that will truly matter as you move on with your lives.
