Use DivorceWriter to prepare your Supreme Court of Ohio Uniform domestic relations forms. You will receive all documents you need to get a dissolution or a divorce in Ohio, ready-to-file, with complete filing instructions.
Residency Requirements
At least one spouse must have lived in Ohio for at least six months before the divorce is filed.
Grounds for Divorce
While Ohio allows people to file for divorce on a number of fault grounds (ex. adultery, extreme cruelty, habitual drunkenness, gross neglect of duty, fraud, or abandonment), DivorceWriter uses the no-fault grounds of incompatibility for all Ohio divorces because it is the easiest grounds to prove. If you are filing for dissolution instead of divorce, no specific grounds are required because the Petition for Dissolution is jointly signed and filed by both spouses.
Dissolution vs. Divorce
Ohio has two options for ending a marriage--dissolution or divorce. A dissolution is essentially a simplified uncontested divorce. It ends the marriage just as a divorce does, but requires fewer documents.
You can choose either option with your DivorceWriter Ohio purchase, allowing you to easily change from divorce forms to dissolution forms at any time at no additional charge. Where to Find Blank State Forms
