In Louisiana, a no-fault divorce requires spouses to live separate and apart with the intent to end the marriage before a divorce can be finalized.
✔️ 180 days of separation if there are no minor children involved
✔️ 365 days of separation if the spouses share minor children
Understanding these timelines is an important first step in the divorce process. If you're considering divorce, knowing your rights and requirements can help you plan for the future with confidence.
