Alternatives to Divorce
Depending on your unique situation, you may have several options to end your marriage without a divorce trial. California allows legal separation, which gives some time off to both spouses to help them decide how property will be shared, custody divided, and other issues like alimony and child support. Legal separation doesn’t end the marriage – the spouses retain their married status for religious or healthcare reasons.
The second can be annulment, which nullifies the marriage by declaring it illegal. The grounds for annulment can be that one spouse is already married, was tricked into marriage, or was too young to marry.
You may also opt for collaborative divorces like mediation and negotiations that allow amicable resolution of divorce disputes.
