Grounds for Divorce
In the state of Maine, both fault and no-fault grounds for divorce are recognized. Thus, if the plaintiff points out the other party's misconduct as a ground for divorce, he or she must present evidence of this fault during a court hearing.
The fault-based grounds for divorce in Maine include adultery, cruelty or abusive treatment, desertion for at least three years, drug and/or alcohol addiction, impotence, neglect, and mental illness legally determined by a court.
The only valid no-fault ground for divorce in Maine is Irreconcilable differences. This ground for divorce does not assume any blame, so no one needs to prove anything.

Our smooth breakup allowed us to file for uncontested divorce and we just decided to arrange it as simply as possible. Online divorce seemed to be a good idea, and now I'm sure we did it right. All the papers were prepared with no issues and I'm pleased with the price. Thanks.

I think that all the papers related to a certain county with its own legal nuances would be prepared correctly only by a Maine-based company. So that's why I used maineonlinedivorce and I was really satisfied. My divorce papers were completed in a timely manner and I had no troubles with filing. That was a really smooth process and you can be confident with your filing.

It always seemed to me that divorce must be a much more complicated process. I couldn't imagine how I would cope with that. Where do I get all those papers, how to fill them out and where to go and what to do? So, I was really glad I found maineonlinedivorce.com and they took care of all the paperwork and gave me clear instructions on how to file with the court. That made the whole process so much easier!
