Divorce Law

Hawaii is a "no-fault" divorce state. To meet the no-fault requirements, you must assert that the marriage is "irretrievably broken." To file for divorce in Hawaii, at least one of the parties must have resided in Hawaii for at least six months, and must have lived on the same island or county for at least three months, prior to filing.
