Reasons for divorce in Vermont

There are both at-fault and no-fault grounds (reasons) for divorce in Vermont. In most cases, it is easier for an uncontested divorce to go through as a no-fault divorce.

The no-fault grounds include living apart without cohabitation and without probable marital relations for at least six months consecutively.

The at-fault grounds include adultery, cruelty, desertion for at least seven years and gross neglect.
