Our team provides steady guidance, clear communication, and strong advocacy to protect your interests and help you start your next chapter with confidence.

Understanding Divorce and Dissolution in Ohio

In Ohio, both divorce and dissolution legally end a marriage, but they take different paths. Knowing which one fits your situation can make the process smoother and less stressful.

Dissolution of Marriage

A dissolution is the simplest and most cooperative way to end a marriage in Ohio. Both spouses agree on all major issues, including child custody, child support, property division, and spousal support. Dissolutions are often faster, less expensive, and more amicable than a traditional divorce.

Divorce

When spouses cannot reach an agreement, divorce becomes necessary. A divorce begins when one spouse files a complaint and the court helps resolve disagreements over important issues. Common grounds for divorce in Ohio include separation for over a year, adultery, or extreme cruelty. While divorce can take more time than dissolution, it allows the court to make fair decisions when cooperation isn’t possible.

Compassionate Legal Support During a Difficult Time

Divorce is not just a legal process; it’s a personal transition that affects every part of your life. Maguire Schneckenburger is dedicated to helping clients find clarity and peace of mind during this time. We take the time to listen to your concerns, explain your options, and help you make informed decisions for yourself and your family.
