An Overview of Divorce in Idaho

Getting a divorce in Eagle? Your case will be governed by Idaho law. You can get divorced here regardless of which state you got married in, so long as you satisfy the residency requirement. One spouse must live in Idaho for at least six weeks before filing. Idaho recognizes no-fault divorce. You do not have to prove that your spouse did anything wrong to get a divorce. You can file on the grounds of irreconcilable differences. While fault grounds exist, no-fault divorce is far more common. For property division, a community property law applies. The marital assets are presumed to be jointly owned by both spouses. However, a 50/50 split is not necessarily guaranteed by state law. For parents, any custody/visitation issues will be resolved in the best interest of the child.

Mark Freeman is our most trusted attorney for all of our estate planning needs. He and his staff were of the utmost professionalism and walked my wife and me through all the steps to make sure we had our assets, including properties in multiple states, our life insurance, and money protected for our children and future family legacy. He answered every question we asked, and even addressed issues that could come up that we hadn’t thought of. I highly recommend Mark for any estate planning needs.

Steve Angiolini

Foley Freeman was amazing to work with! We have never needed legal counseling before and contacted them with time-sensitive needs. They were very kind, eager, and thoroughly explained everything to us. We were not pressured to make decisions or made to feel that our “small” legal issue was a waste of their time. Highly recommend their services to anyone with any legal needs.
