Big change for anyone facing divorce in Virginia. Until now, spouses without a fault basis had to wait six months to a year of separation before they could even file. HB303 changes that: you can now file for a "bed and board" divorce immediately upon separation — no fault grounds, no waiting period — which means the court can step in on custody, support, and finances much earlier.

Our Ashburn attorney Ethan Bundy breaks down exactly what's changing and what it means for families in Loudoun County and across Northern Virginia:

Starting July 1, 2026, Virginia's HB303 lets separating spouses file for a bed and board divorce immediately — no fault grounds, no waiting period.
