What Are Grounds for Divorce in Tennessee?

In order to be granted a divorce in Tennessee, you and your spouse either need to agree that there are simply irreconcilable differences between you (no-fault grounds) or prove that there are grounds for divorce (fault grounds).

Examples of fault grounds include:

  • Adultery;
  • Bigamy;
  • Conviction of a crime;
  • Desertion for two years or longer;
  • Habitual drunkenness or drug abuse;
  • Impotence/incapability of procreation;
  • Inappropriate marital conduct or cruel and inhumane treatment;
  • Living separately continuously for two or more years;
  • Malicious or deliberate attempted murder of that spouse;
  • Pregnancy at the time of the marriage by another man without the husband's knowledge.

Is TN a 50/50 State for Divorce?

In terms of property division during a divorce, Tennessee is an equitable distribution state, which means that marital property is divided fairly and reasonably, not necessarily 50/50.

How Long Does Divorce Take in Tennessee?

An uncontested, no-fault divorce can take anywhere from two to six months. If there are no children, there is a mandatory 60-day "cooling-off" period after the spouse files the complaint. If the couple has children, it can take a minimum of 90 days to finalize the divorce.

A contested divorce can last years, with the average case lasting a year or longer.

Client Reviews

Former Clients Share Their Stories 
  • After meeting him in person I knew he was who I wanted to represent me in a child custody case and later in an adoption case. He responses quickly, effectively and in a timely manner whenever I had a question. He fought for me and each time won my case.
