Virginia is an equitable distribution state, meaning the court divides marital property fairly but not necessarily equally. Under Va. Code § 20-91, you can file for a no-fault divorce after a 6-month separation if you have no minor children and a signed separation agreement, or after a 1-year separation if you have minor children. Fault grounds include adultery, cruelty, desertion for one year, and felony conviction with imprisonment for one year or more. Mr. Sris, founder of Law Offices Of SRIS, P.C. since 1997, personally amended Va. Code § 20-107.3, the equitable distribution statute.
