Alabama allows you to complete your divorce without an attorney if you and your spouse can come to an agreement on what to do with your property and how you will care for any children that you may have.
Alabama Residency Requirements
If the non-filing spouse (the Defendant) lives in Alabama, the filing spouse (the Plaintiff) can file for divorce at any time. However, if the Defendant does not live in Alabama, the Plaintiff must live in Alabama for at least six (6) months before filing for divorce.
Grounds For Divorce
Alabama allows for no-fault divorce on the grounds of an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage when future attempts at reconciliation will be futile and are not in the best interests of the spouses and/or children.
