Strength and Compassion

Divorce is a major life transition that involves emotional and financial challenges.

Whether you are facing a contested or uncontested divorce, we are committed to ensuring that you receive fair treatment in every aspect of your case.

Understanding Divorce in Idaho

Idaho allows both fault-based and no-fault divorces. In a no-fault divorce, spouses can dissolve the marriage due to irreconcilable differences. In a fault-based divorce, one party must prove specific grounds such as:

• Adultery

• Extreme cruelty

• Willful neglect or desertion

• Habitual substance abuse

• Conviction of a felony

Because proving fault-based divorce is challenging, increases the tension in the divorce, and offers benefits only in limited situations, nearly all divorces are no-fault divorces.

Regardless of the reason for your divorce, our legal team will ensure that your interests are protected and your case is handled with efficiency and care.

Key Issues in Divorce Cases

Divorce involves more than just legally ending a marriage. There are several important matters to address, including:

1. Division of Property and Assets

Idaho is a community property state, meaning that assets and debts acquired during the marriage are generally divided equally. However, certain factors may affect the final distribution, such as:

• The financial contributions of each spouse

• Business ownership and investment assets

• Retirement accounts and pensions

• Each spouse’s ability to support himself or herself after the divorce

Our firm works diligently to ensure that marital assets are fairly divided and that our clients retain what they are entitled to.

2. Spousal Support (Alimony)

In some cases, one spouse may be entitled to spousal support (alimony) to help maintain financial stability after the divorce. The court considers factors such as:

• The length of the marriage

• Each spouse’s income and earning potential

• The standard of living during the marriage

• Contributions as a homemaker or caregiver

• The ability to pay the amount of support sought

Whether you are seeking alimony or challenging an unfair request, Strong Family Law can advocate for a fair outcome.

3. Child Custody and Support

If you have children, custody and child support arrangements will be among the most critical aspects of your divorce. Idaho courts prioritize the best interests of the child, taking into account factors such as:

• The child’s emotional and physical well-being

• Each parent’s ability to provide a stable home

• Any history of domestic violence or substance abuse
